Terviva requested Smart Farm Sensing to automate this process using satellite maps. However, most available satellite maps, like Google maps, are outdated not even showing trees. And even with recent satellite maps the best resolution (30cm) is not enough for detecting such young trees.
So, we requested Innovative Drone Services to do a drone survey for the Emerald orchard to provide recent and high-resolution RGB imagery. They provided us with high-quality “crisp and clear” orthorectified maps including DSM which we used as input for our automated tree registration process in the AgrIOT.
And we projected this razor-sharp imagery as an orchard base layer in AgrIOT web portal and mobile app using custom WMS server, clearly showing the individual trees and distinguish them from shrubs and weed. And the 2cm resolution enables to resolve each detail of individual trees in the AgrIOT mobile app!
