southern MN | I agree the future is in subscription services from county wide drone services, all prepackaged data plan for you for $2, $5, $12 an acre depending on what level you want to buy into.
I'd wish we could do it ourselves with our own equipment and our own data, but the Information Age says it won't be so. That same data set can be packaged many different ways and sold to many other groups, marketers, other countries, buyers, interested parties I can't even think of... Its too valuable for us to keep to ourselves.*
Chewing through all the data generated, and figuring out what level of quality gives good info, is what we are going through now. Any reflected light depends on the sun strength, angle, cloud level, even altitude. So many variables to use that one pixel mean something uniformly across a day or season.
I hear thermal info can relate to plant stress, and gives us a 'view' of the plants we can't see with RGB? Figured you would be all over that.
