Drone Farm Mapping
Drone farm mapping is the ideal tool for farm management, maintenance and planning projects.
Why Use Drones to Map and Manage Your Farm?
Drone farm mapping makes agricultural management simpler than ever.
1. Automated Monitoring
Modern drone systems are compatible with automation technology. This makes it simple to establish routine monitoring tasks that drones can complete automatically. If you need to regularly check on crops, buildings and infrastructure, drones make the task simple.
2. Improve Crop Yield
Regular monitoring from drones allows you to spot signs of disease, pests and stress in crops, addressing issues as they arise. This improves crop health and yield, leading to greater profitability for your business.
3. Project Planning and Execution
Apart from providing valuable plant and environmental data, drones are ideal for managing your day-to-day workloads. Whether you’re planting a new field or simply need up to date data, drone farm mapping can help.
4. Livestock and Mustering
Drones have become a popular tool in the livestock industry. Graziers can quickly and easily see cattle in their paddocks, check fence lines and water infrastructure. They can also be used to assist with mustering operations. Drones can easily get to places where a person or horse can't, increasing safety and efficiency.
What is Drone Farm Mapping?
Modern agricultural operations are growing in scale.
While this presents unique opportunities to the industry, keeping up with the additional workload requires technological innovations such as drone farm mapping.
As part of our agricultural services (including drone spraying), Toll Uncrewed Systems offers tailored drone farm mapping services that can play an invaluable role on your farm. Drone farm mapping blends the versatility of RPAs with a variety of imaging equipment to create detailed maps of any property.
For vast farming operations that span hundreds of hectares across multiple holdings, it’s challenging to capture the details you need. Drone farm mapping provides resources to help you manage your operation, plan works and improve crop yields.
Benefits of Drone Farm Mapping
Drones are revolutionising the agriculture industry. The combination of our drone farm mapping and crop spraying services can deliver a few major benefits to your operation:
- Cost-effective. Drone farm mapping is one of the most affordable ways to draw insights about your operation. Capable of being deployed and retrieved rapidly, drone platforms can provide detailed information in much less time than traditional methods.
- Increase crop yield. By providing precise information about crop growth and health, drone farm mapping is the ultimate tool for increasing yield. Whether you’re growing grain, vegetables, timber or other agricultural products, we can provide the data you need to maximise your outcomes.
- Manage infrastructure. The expanding size of farms has demanded an increase in automation. To support that, many farms are deploying new infrastructure on a grand scale. Drone farm mapping provides detailed maps and models that can be used to manage existing infrastructure and plan for the future of your operation.
- Deliver useful data. Much like our drone surveying services, drone farm mapping services can be used to capture any data you need. From crop monitoring to detailed images of your farm, we can unlock new types of data that have the potential to power your business.
Detailed Drone Farm Mapping and Insights
The sheer size of the property is often one of the biggest challenges in farming.
When you’re managing hundreds of hectares with a diverse range of crops, staying on top of what’s happening is difficult. Drone farm mapping services are designed to handle the heavy lifting.
Whether you need orthographic maps to share with contractors, or detailed 3D models for planning, our drones can output powerful results and help you draw real insights.
Our drone services Australia wide provide a complete picture of your operation. This can include data like stand counts, irrigation mapping, scouting, project planning and crop monitoring and much more.
With our advanced DJI drones, we deliver maps and models using a mix of imaging cameras, infrared sensors and LiDAR. This combination allows us to provide information that supports every corner of your business.
Drone Farm Mapping Tailored to Your Operation
A specialised type of aerial mapping, drone farm mapping is tailored to suit the needs of farm managers, employees and operators. Since no two farms are alike, the Toll Uncrewed Systems team will work with you to tailor drone farm mapping services that suit your operation.
We use a variety of drone platforms, sensors and payloads to deliver customised solutions and provide data that makes a real difference. Depending on your needs, we offer drone farm mapping that provides results in a variety of formats, including:
Orthomosaic maps stitch together thousands of images taken during a drone flight. These can be used to create highly detailed maps that provide an overview of your operation.
Drone farm mapping can be used to quickly and effectively identify field boundaries and the features of your property. From identifying vegetation and structures to monitoring water flow, our drone maps offer the information you need to draw real insights.
Monitoring crop growth, health and harvesting is much simpler with drone farm mapping. Capable of covering large properties in record time, our drone platforms can deliver the information you need to plan works and maximise yields.
Whether you’re planning an expansion, a new dam or something else entirely, drone farm mapping can produce detailed 3D models of your property.
