Raven's Applied Technology division has been named the worldwide exclusive distribution partner for AgEagle Aerial Systems, a provider of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) used in precision farming.
The Sequoia is a small, light multispectral UAS sensor that captures images of crops across four highly defined, visible and non-visible spectral bands, plus RGB imagery.
The ROAM system uses a multispectral camera and multi-parameter image analyses that can be carried out on-site to allow growers to make same-day decisions.
Auburn University has announced that its precision agriculture researchers are using unmanned aerial systems to monitor crop health over large acreages, utilizing the aircraft to develop a method that lets farmers quickly address potential trouble spots.
The advanced sense and avoid solution is designed to help the Zenith UAS stay clear of objects as it relays images, video and data to the user or a third party.

High-resolution imagery and data analysis contributed to a $20 per acre profit and timely fertilizer applications for strip-tillers Eric and Megan Wallendal.
The motor begins to hum and the propellers begin their increasingly rapid revolutions. A gentle upward tilt of the joystick by the owner and the rotocopter is airborne — slowly elevating as it drifts over a cornfield to capture hundreds of images that will be processed and analyzed.
An estimated 45,000 farmers across the United States received a drone or unmanned aerial system for Christmas, according to Kris Poulson, vice president of agriculture for Sentera.
Sentera is working with the Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Laboratories at the university to develop a high-precision autopilot toolkit for UAS use — now available under an open-source license.
Verdant Robotics showed off its new Sharpshooter at the FIRA Conference a few weeks ago. Dubbed the only robotic precision application system that aims before it shoots, Sharpshooter uses Bullseye Aim & Apply Technology.
The college offers an associate degree in Applied Science in Agriculture (60 credit hours). Students enrolled in this program may specialize in precision farming technology by selecting up to 15 credit hours in this area and agriculture business, sales and agronomy.
The college offers an AAS in Precision Agriculture and customized precision ag- related training for agricultural producers, insurance underwriters, equipment dealer and agricultural cooperative employees and others.
Offering training on Ag Leader, Trimble, Reichhardt, Norac and Integris Systems in twice yearly customer training events (spring/fall). Also offering individual training opportunities on any HTS Ag products and SMS software, year round.
