If you need help finding the right solution for your farmland, you may send an inquiry to consult with our analysts and pilots.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) allow for unprecedented levels of control when it comes to managing crops and farmland.

For example, drones can rapidly survey up to 200 hectares in a day and return with high resolution imagery to monitor the growth and health of crops and soil over time. This is particularly important to quickly assess damage caused by typhoons, floods, and parasites.

Drones also aid in agriculture planning by identifying slopes and elevation in the property, along with possible irrigation paths, to find the most suitable planting areas. GPS locations are always recorded and can be used to directly measure the size of plots for different uses.

All these uses and more are enabled by the different sensors equipped on drones. These range from photogrammetry sensors that can photograph and video any property in extreme detail, to multispectral cameras that measure the amount of near infrared light reflected by chlorophyll in plants to assess their health.

Agriculture is one of the newest industries that have been transformed by modern drone technology, for many reasons.

Quickly gather large amounts of data in a short time
Drones can cover and collect data from hundreds of hectares of agricultural land within a few hours – much faster than other traditional survey methods. This speed is extremely important when you need to find out the amount of damage caused by floods, or whenever you need to make a decision on when and where to plant.

Survey hard to reach terrain
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are not limited by the type or accessibility of terrain. They can be sent to survey properties that would be dangerous or very time-consuming to survey on the ground such as extreme slopes or cliffs and mountainous areas.

Wide range of agricultural applications
Drones can be equipped with sensors to gather data for any purpose. This includes monitoring the health and growth rates of crops, finding differences in the amount of moisture in the soil, and making measurements for distance, volume, and number.

Make reliable and accurate measurements
All measurements done by drones are highly reliable and backed up by robust data. Surveys and imagery can be done to the centimeter level in high resolution to easily spot differences.

The price of aerial surveys and data analysis for farmlands depend on multiple factors including:

• Size of the area to be surveyed (hectares or square meters)
• Complexity of analysis required
• Time frame on when output needs to be delivered

All drone services are highly flexible in duration, coverage, and data type and can be designed to meet any specific requirement. If you would like a detailed estimate of how much a survey of your agricultural site costs, simply send us a message and we will send you a free quote.

Our drone services are all designed to be easy, comprehensive, and helpful. It only takes 4 steps from start to finish which includes a free consultation and quote with our pilots and engineers.
