Multispectral Mapping & Vegetation Analysis
Multispectral mapping captures data beyond visible light using specialist drone sensors. We generate vegetation health maps and crop index reports for agriculture, forestry, and environmental monitoring, revealing stress and disease before it's visible to the naked eye.
How Multispectral Imaging Works
Multispectral mapping uses a specialised drone camera that captures light beyond the visible spectrum, typically including Red, Green, Blue, Red Edge, and Near-Infrared (NIR) wavelengths.
By analysing how vegetation reflects these different wavelengths, we can assess plant health, stress levels, moisture, and nutrient conditions across large areas. The data is processed to generate colour-coded index maps (such as NDVI or NDRE) which clearly show variations in crop or vegetation health.
These maps allow you to identify underperforming zones, irrigation issues, or areas affected by disease long before problems are visible to the naked eye.

CONSULTATION
We discuss your objectives and determine which vegetation indices will provide the most valuable insights.
FLIGHT & DATA CAPTURE
Our drones equipped with multispectral sensors (e.g., RedEdge MX, DJI M3M) capture data across multiple wavelengths
PROCESSING & ANALYSIS
We calculate vegetation indices (NDVI, NDRE, GNDVI) and generate colour-coded maps showing health variations.
REPORTING
You receive GeoTIFF maps, statistical reports, and actionable recommendations for targeted management.
