Last summer, with the help of the DIY Drones community, Agribotix set out to discover how drones could be used to help growers make better decisions. Some of you followed the journey through our blog posts, and we are grateful for all the discussion and discourse our results generated. By the end of the summer, we had the pleasure of working with dozens of growers across many states and several countries who leveraged Agribotix drones or image processing on different types of crops.

Over the course of our first full year in operation, we found that many growers are looking for a simple, cloud-based solution to process their images into actionable intelligence. We wanted the participants at DIY Drones to be one of the first to know that Agribotix has opened up our drone data processing system -- Bring Your Own Drone™ (BYOD) -- to anyone flying drones for agriculture.

The service takes images from virtually any drone, stitches them and returns a single view of a field.  If you send us near-IR pictures, we will also return the results with a false-color NDVI image as well as a shapefile that can be imported into virtually any farm management system and used as an aid to precision fertilizer application.

If you are using a 3D Robotics flight controller, you can download our Field Extractor software, which will automate the process of selecting the images for each flight, geotagging them and uploading. 

We have tried to make the process as risk-free as possible; we process your results, return a thumbnail, and you only pay if you like what you see. You can sign up and begin processing immediately.  Use the Discount Code DIYFREEFIELD and your first field will be processed at no cost.

If you are flying drones for agriculture, we hope you will give our service a try and let us know what you think.

  • While an excellent image, this one is clearly heavily averaged, and/modified. I've run spectral analysis on center-irrigated fields and the tracks always show up on the finished imagery (and there is zero growth in the centre as nothing is ever planted there). Nevertheless a great image to show the utility of digital imaging in precision agriculture.
