Agriculture & Plantations

Precision Agriculture from the Sky

Monitor crop health at scale, optimise irrigation, and detect pest and disease outbreaks weeks before they become visible to the naked eye.

Why Agriculture Needs Drones

Southeast Asia's agricultural sector faces mounting pressure to increase yields while reducing resource consumption. Palm oil plantations across Malaysia and Indonesia, rice paddies in Thailand, and vegetable farms in Singapore all share the same fundamental challenge: monitoring crop health across vast areas quickly enough to act on problems before they spread.

Traditional ground-based scouting is labour-intensive, slow, and limited in coverage. A single agronomist walking through a plantation can inspect only a fraction of the total area in a day, and subtle variations in plant health are invisible from ground level. By the time a problem is identified, significant crop loss may have already occurred.

Irrigation inefficiency compounds the problem. Without precise data on soil moisture distribution and crop water stress, farms over-irrigate some zones and under-irrigate others — wasting water and reducing yields simultaneously. Drone-mounted multispectral sensors provide the actionable data that modern precision agriculture demands.

Common Pain Points

  • Inability to scout large plantation areas in a timely manner
  • Late detection of pest infestations, nutrient deficiencies, and disease outbreaks
  • Irrigation zones that do not match actual crop water demand
  • Inaccurate yield forecasts that disrupt harvest logistics and market planning
  • Unclear plantation boundaries leading to land-use disputes

Services for Agriculture & Plantations

Use Cases

NDVI Crop Health Mapping

Multispectral drone sensors capture near-infrared reflectance data that reveals plant vigour invisible to the human eye. Generate NDVI maps that pinpoint stressed zones, nutrient deficiencies, and disease hotspots across thousands of hectares.

Irrigation Analysis

Overlay thermal and multispectral data to identify zones of water stress and over-saturation. Optimise irrigation scheduling and zoning to reduce water consumption while maintaining optimal crop health.

Yield Estimation

AI models analyse canopy density, plant count, and health indices to forecast yields with greater accuracy than traditional sampling methods. Improve harvest logistics and market planning with data-driven predictions.

Plantation Boundary Surveys

Generate georeferenced orthomosaics that clearly delineate plantation boundaries, access roads, and buffer zones. Essential for lease management, land-use compliance, and resolving boundary disputes.

Key Benefits

30%

Water Savings

Precision irrigation guided by drone-derived crop water stress data eliminates over-watering and optimises resource allocation across every zone.

Early

Disease Detection

Multispectral sensors detect crop stress two to three weeks before symptoms become visible to the human eye — enabling targeted intervention before losses compound.

10x

Coverage Speed

A single drone flight covers in one hour what a ground scouting crew would take a full day to inspect — with far greater consistency and spatial resolution.
