Drone Technologies Used to Assess Modern Farming Practices by Stephen Wilkerson

To keep pace with population growth, farmers are utilizing a host of modern technologies to include Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO), along with increased chemical pesticides and fertilizer usage. These new techniques have led to runoff problems for water systems and local watersheds. Using Drone based technologies the overuse of fertilizers, chemical sprays and pesticides can be minimized while preserving farm output and quality. We look at the use of multispectral camera technologies along with drones to survey farms growing corn in varying climates. The technologies used to assess farms and modern farming practices are by their nature multidisciplinary. In this talk we detail what students need to learn to operate drones in the commercial airspace.
