Advanced Field Mapping & Crop Analysis
Make informed decisions with precise field mapping, NDVI crop health analysis, and detailed aerial surveys. Our drone mapping services provide accurate data to help you optimize yields, identify problem areas, and manage your farm more efficiently.
What is Drone Mapping?
Drone mapping uses aerial imagery and advanced sensors to create detailed maps and analyze crop health. By capturing hundreds of images and processing them with specialized software, we generate high-resolution maps that reveal insights invisible to the naked eye.
πΏ Crop Health Monitoring
NDVI imaging reveals plant health, stress, and vigor levels across your entire field, helping you spot problems early.
π Accurate Acreage
Precise measurements for field boundaries, planted areas, and crop coverage down to the square foot.
π― Problem Detection
Identify drainage issues, pest infestations, disease outbreaks, and nutrient deficiencies before they spread.
π° Optimize Inputs
Make data-driven decisions about fertilizer, water, and chemical applications to reduce waste and costs.
Mapping Services We Offer
NDVI Crop Health Mapping
Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) imaging uses multispectral cameras to measure plant health and photosynthetic activity. The resulting color-coded maps make it easy to identify:
- Areas of stress or poor growth
- Variations in crop vigor
- Water stress and drainage problems
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Pest or disease pressure
Orthomosaic Mapping
High-resolution aerial maps stitched from hundreds of individual images, providing:
- Accurate field boundaries and measurements
- Detailed topography and elevation data
- Progress documentation over time
- 3D terrain models
Prescription Mapping
Variable rate application maps for precision agriculture:
- Custom fertilizer application zones
- Seeding rate optimization
- Targeted chemical applications
- Irrigation management zones
How It Works
- Field Survey - We fly systematic patterns over your fields, capturing overlapping images from multiple angles.
- Data Processing - Hundreds of images are processed using photogrammetry software to create detailed maps.
- Analysis - Our team analyzes the data to identify patterns, problems, and opportunities.
- Report Delivery - You receive easy-to-read maps, reports, and actionable recommendations.
- Follow-Up - We can conduct regular monitoring to track changes and measure results over time.
