Leveraging drones, data, and storytelling to advance global health, environmental, and humanitarian efforts.

There are many drone sensors and drone models available for agricultural use. Some drones specialize in spraying, while others capture data that can be used to provide insight into crop or livestock health. Drones can be outfitted with multispectral, hyperspectral, thermal, LiDAR, and RGB sensors. Multispectral and hyperspectral sensors can detect water drainages and determine vegetation health. Thermal sensors can detect water stress and availability, and LiDAR sensors can estimate plant volume and provide terrain data. Some multispectral sensors used for farming include: - Micasense Altum - Micasense Rededge-MX - Parrot Sequoia+ Some specific drones used for farming include: (for imagery) - DJI Inspire 2 - DJI Matrice 200 V2  - DJI Phantom Series  - DJI Mavic 3 Multispectral - eBee Series  - Mikrokopter Hexa-II - DJI P4 Multispectral - Draganfly Commander 3XL (for spraying/seeding) - DJI Agras T30 - XAG P100 What agricultural drones are your favorite? Any I missed? Please leave a comment if you know of any additional sensors or drones used for precision agriculture! #dronesforgood #drones4good #drones #agriculture #farming #precisionagriculture #multispectral #thermal #lidar #hyperspectral #imagery Follow me (Kat James) to learn more about #dronesforgood.

Really enjoy using the mavic 3m, it's a pretty good platform. Processing with pix4dfields and analysis using qgis.
