Ceres Imaging Precision Agriculture Analytics and Aerial Imagery
Ceres Imaging Precision Agriculture Analytics and Aerial imagery package reports various visual metrics of canopy health, including chlorophyll index (CI), NDVI, thermal, and water stress index.
Hub Highlights:
- Work with a specialist to determine a flight schedule that is right for you, or choose your own.
- Ceres Imaging specialists pin point irrigation issues and and automatically notify growers.
- 30.00/acre for 8 aerial missions throughout the growing season in processing tomato for a total of 2100/yr
