If you are still out there, I would like to hear from you. I have almost the exact same interest in using UAVs. I'd like to hear what you found out. Please send me an email directly to quartz_lp@hotmail.com.
Thanks,

Hi allDoes anyone know of any sensors that are small enough for UAV's for such things like sensing water/chemicals on the ground during low level flight?...and where they might be available from, so that I can get some technical information about them if possible.ThanksSee More
Adeel Akram replied to Adeel Akram's discussion UAV for remote crop monitoring"Hi...thanks Peter
I have read a few things on the UAV DevBoard and it does sound interesting...
Its great to hear that the board can be programmed using MPLAB..since I have been working on PIC's in my first year at uni...i guess this will…"
Peter Meister replied to Adeel Akram's discussion UAV for remote crop monitoring"Go to the UAV Devboard section and read Bill P. stuff on DCM and the kalman. Will help you a lot in understanding the UAV Devboard platform. Jordi can point you to any analysis docs on ardupilot, I have not seen to many deep ones - but maybe I have…"
Adeel Akram replied to Adeel Akram's discussion UAV for remote crop monitoring"Hi all thanks for your reply
To be abit more specific this will be alot more of a paper exploring the issues that ive indicated rather than actually building a complete UAV, so like maybe looking at existing technology (something like Ardupilot/Dev…"
Aaron Buckner replied to Adeel Akram's discussion UAV for remote crop monitoring"There are several UAV platforms and even the Ardupilot or UAV Dev Board that can do the "UAV" portions and may very well be up to the task. This is the reinventing the wheel argument, its been done, pick a compatible platform and…"

In my opinion you may focusing on the wrong issues. If you want to contribute to this niche sector you could just focus on the sensing, data processing and analysis portion. This is the area where there are a major lack of tools and…"

"First look at what has been done: cropcam.
Then estimate timescale. Autopilot integration with flying platform is 6 months +.
Autopilot development 2-4 man years, + at least 1 year total time.
Mission specific processing can be a few man-years.
Try…"

Hi allI am currently at university and will be starting a project on UAV's for remote crop minotoring.particularly important aspect of this is early sensing of water shortages/diseases so that appropriate measures can be taken early. The project will consider the choices associated with designing a UAV for remote crop monitoring.Particular attention will be paid to the flight dynamics, power, control,computation, sensing and communication.So I wanted to know where I can start. What things i…See More
