High-resolution orthomosaic maps, NDVI vegetation indexes, and prescription maps.
Aerial mapping produces high-resolution orthomosaic images stitched from hundreds of overlapping aerial photos. Operators generate NDVI vegetation index maps showing crop vigor variation, multispectral analysis for nutrient and chlorophyll content, elevation models revealing drainage patterns, and prescription maps that feed variable-rate application equipment. Mapping flights deliver data products in GeoTIFF, KML, and shapefile formats for integration with precision ag platforms.

AL · comprehensive drone application across row crops, forestry & aquatics
Alabama-based operator founded 2023 offering comprehensive drone aerial application across row crops, forestry, pastures, and invasive species. Covers AL, GA, MS, FL, TN, AR, and KY. Services include cotton, peanuts, corn, soybeans, hay, loblolly pine, orchards, vegetables, and aquatic weed management plus multispectral imaging.
A standard mapping flight produces an orthomosaic (georeferenced aerial image), NDVI vegetation index map, elevation model, and field boundary files. Advanced flights add multispectral analysis and prescription maps for variable-rate application equipment.
Drones equipped with RTK/PPK GPS achieve 1 to 3 cm horizontal accuracy and 2 to 5 cm vertical accuracy, sufficient for precision ag applications and field documentation. Standard mapping without RTK achieves 3 to 10 cm accuracy.
There are 7 operators offering aerial mapping drone services in Georgia: Volitant Technologies, Conservation Drone Services, Aerobotic Services, Fair Lifts Agricultural Drones, Southern Drone Ops, DarkStar Drones, Coastal Agriculture Services.
