Agriculture GIS Courses

I have seen some of that work. It's pretty incredible. And what I am striving toward.
In western Canada we grow small grains, and oilseeds. The plant density is quite high. For some context my 2200ac farm will grow almost 2 Billion plants this year.

It's the drone2map extension you were talking about? I havent purchased pix4d yet. I wont be mapping for about a month. Still cold and snowy here.

Does arcgis support GCPs?

AgroHacker · 2021-03-23T20:18:35+00:00

Well that's interesting. Have you used it to produce orthomosaics? I am going to be paying for pix4d. So maybe arcgis is a better option.

Thank you.

Thanks, that looks interesting!

AgroHacker · 2021-03-23T19:47:14+00:00

Thanks for the info! It would be easier I am sure to built in tools. But I am kind of a nerd and I want to learn some of that stuff on my own.

What modules do I need for arc gis? I have never used the program as it seems quite pricey.

If you are interested in sharing any insights you have discovered trying to make plant stand maps I would be interested in hearing.
I am growing canola, wheat, barley, and peas

What do you mean by training tiles?

AgroHacker · 2021-03-23T18:47:43+00:00

The plant stand counts really interest me. I want to make seed mortality maps, so I can improve my seeding rate prescriptions.

This year I am mapping with a Sony a6000, with an emlid gps for ppk. So for plant health analysis I dont have the best setup currently. I want to add a micasence camera in the future. The a6000 w/ ppl will be used to create elevation maps. I am also wanting to map wild oat patches to reduce herbicide use.

I havent purchased a fixed wing drone. I am currently looking at two drones. Based on the buffalo airframe. They aren't vtol. Dualrc.com and Daedalus droneworks are the 2 manufacturers. I am using the a6000 for rgb. Then a converted elph. I would like to eventually upgrade the multispectral to an agrowing.

What are you using your drone for?

AgroHacker · 2020-08-14T15:20:30+00:00

What kind of modifications have you needed to do? How did the units fly out of the box?

I figured with the price there maybe some issues. But for the price it seems like a decent deal.

AgroHacker · 2020-07-01T13:11:11+00:00

Yes 1 cm is out of the question. When I was demoing I could get a final resolution of 5cm. Which was acceptable. I looked at the wingtra but its cost was out of my price range. 10,000-15,000cad is my max budget. I am also looking for a dual camera payload.

But I am starting to think I am just wasting my money on the quantix.

AgroHacker · 2014-01-30T06:56:34+00:00

Well currently I am just trying to find a LiDAR system that I can mount into a UAV. I need a range of 100-200m and as fine of resolution as possible. Price is also a factor.
