DJI always provides an up-to-date, high resolution aerial data solution that maximizes yields and minimizes costs with drone mapping. Mavic Pro, a drone mapping, has abiltity to compile plants count and establishment checks, detect weeds/disease or parasites and fungi, measure nitrogen and biomass.
With fast data processing and the ability to fly in variable weather conditions, DJI Mavic Pro allows farmers to work with the latest crop data, including crop stress and crop health issues on farming properties. Then export it in industry standard formats for variable rate nitrogen or pesticide prescriptions.
The Mavic Pro
The DJI Mavic Pro is a small yet powerful drone weighing only 743 grams that lets farmers very quickly get airborne for a quick look at farmer's crops or livestock. Its compact size hides a high degree of complexity that makes it one of DJI’s most sophisticated flying cameras ever. 24 high-performance computing cores, an all-new transmission system with a 4.3mi (7km).
Long range, height sensors and a 4K stabilized camera are at your command. Even the remote controller is pocket-sized, so you can always have this with you in your pickup’s glove compartment.
