senseFly Joins Trimble Select List of Preferred Partners for Agriculture
Date:09-18-2019
senseFly, the global leader in-fixed wing drones, announced its status as a Trimble Select Partner.
With this new partnership, agriculture professionals in North America and Europe get direct access to senseFly’s platform of drones through Trimble’s trusted distribution network.
“We’re pleased to be chosen as a Trimble Select Partner,” said Gilles Labossière, senseFly CEO. “senseFly is committed to being the leader in fixed-wing drones, and partnerships with respected and established organizations, such as Trimble, validate our position, while making it easier for agriculture professionals to take advantage of senseFly’s innovative drone solutions.”
In addition to leading models like the eBee X fixed-wing drone, Trimble customers will have access to senseFly’s extensive suite of drone sensors.
Taking precision agriculture to new heights
Since its introduction in 2018, the eBee X has become the fixed-wing drone of choice for precision agriculture.
The eBee X is an advanced fixed-wing drone that is designed to boost the quality and efficiency of data acquisition and is well-suited to meet the evolving needs of agriculture professionals.
The data collected is invaluable to agricultural professionals, helping with a wide array of applications, including crop monitoring, soil assessment, plant emergence and population, fertility, crop protection, harvest planning, irrigation and drainage.
Purpose-built sensors for precision agriculture
The eBee X is compatible with the Parrot Sequoia+ multispectral camera and MicaSense RedEdge-MX, two multispectral sensors designed to address the needs of agronomists, agricultural engineers and farmers.
The Parrot Sequoia+ features four multispectral sensors to capture visible and non-visible spectral bands as well as an RGB sensor.
The MicaSense RedEdge-MX is a rugged and precise multispectral sensor for advanced agricultural analysis. This high-performance tool captures both the spectral bands required for crop health indices (green, red, red edge and near-infrared) and blue band for deeper insights into specific issues.
The eBee X is also compatible with senseFly’s extensive range of high-resolution RGB and thermal cameras, including the senseFly S.O.D.A. 3D, senseFly S.O.D.A., Aeria X and Duet T, all of which provide vital insights to professionals in the field.
The eBee X and its suite of sensors add value throughout the growing season by providing efficient crop insights and helping agronomists, farmers and researchers accurately plan and manage their operations.
