Indicative pricing
From $7/ha · sliding scale by area
Who it's for
Growers wanting to understand within-paddock variability before fertiliser application, or agronomists targeting their walks. Particularly useful in canola, wheat, and barley at GS30-50.
What you get
- → Multispectral imagery at 5-10 cm/pixel (Red, Green, Blue, Red Edge, Near-IR)
- → NDVI and NDRE indices as cloud-optimised GeoTIFFs
- → Management zone polygons (3-5 zones typical)
- → Commentary report identifying outlier zones for ground truthing
- → Delivery in your prescription platform of choice
Why us for this
- ✓ Multispectral capture, not just RGB-derived 'NDVI' — actual reflectance in the right wavelengths
- ✓ Management zones generated with k-means clustering on the imagery, not a generic split
- ✓ Commentary written by people who walk paddocks, not a junior at a desk

Drone Mapping & Aerial Survey
Centimetre-level paddock truth, captured in hours not weeks.
RTK-corrected drone surveys producing orthomosaics, elevation models, and boundary outputs accurate enough for earthworks design, drainage, and prescription generation. Over 5,000 hectares of WA broadacre flown.

Map the weeds, spray only the weeds.
High-resolution drone imagery for green-on-brown weed mapping in summer fallow. Output is a sprayer-ready shapefile, dropping summer chemical use by 70-90% on typical paddocks.

For the patches a sprayer can't reach.
Targeted drone-based application using DJI Agras T40/T50 platforms — for steep, wet, or otherwise inaccessible ground; for spot-treatment of weed escapes; and for cover crop seeding into standing crops.
