Drones in agriculture. From mapping areas, to modelling fields and buildings, as well as livestock management and crop scouting. Drones can be extremely useful in providing data and images to owners and workers within agricultural environments.
Having completed training as Drone operators within the agricultural sector at Harper Adams University for the BASiS register, we are ideally placed to provide such services throughout Shropshire and the surrounding areas.
We are pleased to be able to supply UAV Survey, Commercial Drone Photography and other such aerial services to agricultural clients within Shropshire, Cheshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Mid Wales at short notice, and other areasĀ on an ad-hoc basis.
At one level, we can provide orthophoto images of fields, composed of multiple images taken from our UAVs, and from these we can provide Digital Elevation Models, or include contours to provide a detailed map of the field, or fields in question.
Drones / UAVs can be very beneficial in mapping and inspecting sports fields and larger environments such as golf courses, point to point and national hunt racecourses.
It is possible to present the data collected in a variety of ways, similar to the agricultural imaging above:
As with any drone imagery taken by trained operators such as ourselves, measurements can be garnered from the associated point clouds generated from the collected data as explained in our mapping and modelling page.
We have the ability to utilise drone borne multi-spectral sensors to provide indications on crop health, which can be of great use to farmers and agronomists. The imagery can also prove very useful to those people responsible for such environments as golf courses, playing fields and racecourses.
This can be very useful for farmers to determine the health of their crops as well as those people responsible for the upkeep of sporting facilities and amenity land.
We are available at short notice for mapping and modelling agricultural, sporting and leisure facilities in the Shropshire and surrounding areas. As well as most of the rest of the UK should the need arise.
Feel free to contact us to discuss your needs, or to find out how drones can help in managing your farmland, sports fields and amenity land.
