SkySquirrel developed drone-based imaging technology for crop health monitoring, with a primary focus on increasing crop yields and lowering disease losses in commercial vineyards. Their objective is to offer data to growers in order to improve crop quality and efficiency. Their one-of-a-kind solution combines a drone system, specialist camera equipment, and image processing through a cloud service to transmit crop information at the plant level.
Precision agriculture can boost output significantly by fine-tuning crop management at the plant level rather than the field level. In wine production, for example, eliminating irregularities across a vineyard yields superior quality wine, which can lead to improved profitability of up to $25k per acre.
