Agriculture-Based Services

A+ Drone Services LLC provides the latest in drone scouting technology for the agricultural industry. By incorporating drone technology into your operations, you can maximize yields, make timely decisions, and ultimately save money. With A+ Drone Services LLC, optimizing your agricultural production has never been easier.

Drones? Why not just use satellite imagery?

Satellite imagery typically has interference from clouds whether you can see it or not. A+ Drone Services provides sub-2-inch per pixel accuracy when conducting field analytics. Typical agricultural satellite imagery has an accuracy of 50-100 feet per pixel. Satellites also have to deal with interference from cloud and the atmosphere. Our drones fly at a maximum of 375 ft above ground level, so we are far below any of these obstructions.

Our Services

Tile Mapping

Tile mapping can be an effective tool for farmers to address drainage issues, spot plugged tile, and learn where existing lines are on a new farm. Using aerial imagery and an automated system, farmers are quickly provided with tile line locations and can locate any blockages. This data can then be used to make informed decisions about how to improve drainage and prevent future problems. 

Non-mapping Crop Scouting

Non-mapped crop scouting is a great alternative to gain an overview of your fields. From these pictures you can quickly see areas of concern before it is too late. These images allow a general overview of your fields from different angles, allowing you to see your whole field in just one glance. 

Standard Field Mapping

Mapping fields gives you a distinct advantage within your operation. From spotting problems in a growing crop, to determining stand counts in low population crops, to creating a boundary for precise section control of your machines, mapping a growing field is a valuable asset to farmers. You can spot areas that are visibly stressed early in the season and make the right decisions to address them. Additionally, you can see any areas of erosion before you make your next pass. Maps can typically be created within minutes of the scan being complete. 

Mapping Crop Scouting with MS

Drone scouting with multispectral (MS) imaging provides an excellent tool for crop scouting. With multispectral imaging, farmers can gain insights on their fields that our eyes cannot see. Using Near-Infared and Red Edge light bands, the maps we generate give you a full view of your field and spot problems before they become visible. This data can be used to spot diseases or pests in their crops before it is too late. Furthermore, the data can be used to determine exactly where fungicides need to be sprayed, minimizing the amount of product used and ensuring the best possible results. Drone scouting with multispectral imaging is a powerful tool that can help farmers maximize their crop yields and protect their plants from disease and pests.

Variable Rate Prescriptions

Variable rating fertilizer is an excellent opportunity to save money and provides an excellent return on investment. Prescriptions can easily be tailored to your specific farm needs, allowing you to be precise about your nutrient application. Variable rate prescriptions can be created from the drone scouting data, allowing you to apply fertilizer, pesticides, fungicides, and other treatments only where and when they are needed. This saves money, time, and resources, while still ensuring that your crops get the best possible care. Prescriptions can be created in the field the day of application allowing you to help your dollars go further.
