Polytec presents a complete drone solution for hyperspectral remote sensing. The ready-to-use systems from the US manufacturer Headwall Photonics are equally suitable for precision agriculture, environmental protection, forestry and surface mining.
They are based on a professional multicopter with an adapted gimbal for image stabilization. Integral components also include position sensors for flight parameter control, VNIR or SWIR hyperspectral image sensors as well as software for flight planning, post-processing and image correction, analysis and linking to geo-data.
Depending on the application, the system is equipped with a Nano-Hyperspec VNIR sensor for the visible and near-infrared wavelength range or with a Micro-Hyperspec sensor for SWIR, i.e. the short-wave infrared range. An additional Lidar module integrate.
At the touch of a button, parameters such as vegetation indices can be recorded. But other parameters such as plant infestation by diseases or pests can be determined with suitable models.
