Farm Mapping Using Quadcopter

Abstract

Farm mapping and analyzing using quad copter helps farmers to protect their crops from pests and insects and to prevent their plants from being damaged. The quad copter works with (NDVI) technique. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data used to estimate the health of green vegetation and post processed high definition images for precision agriculture. Drone provide high-resolution field surveying images taken of crops, it compares the reflected densities of near infrared (NIR) and visible light (Red Green Blue). Autonomous aircrafts are improved and cost effective instruments for data acquisition, real-time thermal imagery to the ground control station (GCS), and fastest medium for quick time and critical analysis of the crop. The research represents an alternative and cheaper methodology to estimate the growing crop health and stress byacquisition of data usingdrone with modified airborne cameras and sensors.
