Double 4K Sensor Now Compatible with Drone System
ST. PAUL, Minn. – Mar. 22, 2023 – Sentera, the industry-leading provider of ag analytics, today announced that its versatile Double 4K Sensor is now compatible with the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise.
In recent years, ag drone systems have proven to be a suitable technology solution to get plant-level data at key growth stages throughout the season. Traditional data capture relied on manual methods that tend to be time-consuming and often prone to human error.
“With the addition of a sensor built for ag data capture, the compact, high-endurance DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise lends itself well to capturing aerial imagery for field-level data,” said Ryan Nelson, chief mechanical engineer, Sentera. “Whether looking for an entry-level ag drone system or upgrading an older drone, we’re excited to offer a solution that maximizes field-level insights.”
Sentera’s Double 4K Sensor, which is available in four variations, easily connects to the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise. The dual cameras on the sensor operate in tandem with the wide-lens camera on the drone, maximizing aerial capture for deeper insights.
Captured imagery can then be processed via Sentera’s data science ecosystem to generate plant-level measurements, including:
- Canopy Cover, characterizing crop growth stage and development
- Crop Area, detecting and validating field borders digitally
- Crop Health, measuring the effects of products and treatments
- Elevation & Hydrology, modeling how water will flow within a field to fuel critical decisions about water management
- Flowering, monitoring development and timing throughout the season
- Height & Lodging, measuring canopy height and detecting areas of lodged or damaged crop canopy
- Residue Cover, fueling critical decisions around soil management, including tillage and planting
- Stand Count, quantifying crop emergence and uniformity
