Precision Agriculture is a business management strategy that acquires data to optimize agricultural production in terms of quality and quantity, paying attention to different types of land and crops. Provides valuable support to improve performance and results. It operates at 360 degrees within a modern agricultural enterprise, or called Agriculture 4.0. Tools are used for data collection and monitoring, aimed at detecting the health of the cultivation areas, indicating natural causes that reduce productivity. The use of drones (UAS) enables high-resolution thermal imaging to provide essential data and information on the health of soil and crops. With these images it is possible to understand which sections of land need increased or reduced irrigation, which crops need care, which areas are infected by pests. The use of drones (UAS) is not limited to the collection of images and data, but also allows the distribution of fertilizers or other plant care products.

The main advantages are: reduction of time and costs for information collection, increase in the amount and type of information collected (some information can only be obtained from above and/or with small tools), flexibility of use according to different needs and conditions and reduction of environmental impact compared to other terrestrial data collection technologies. The course of Precision Agriculture is aimed at learning the theoretical concepts of precise agriculture with drone, planning missions for various surveys, using open source and commercial software tools for processing the data set, of the sensor setting.

ExaDrone Academy provides the course in-person at our premises, as it includes a theoretical part followed by a practice.  At the end of the course, a certificate will be issued by ENEA - National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development.
