Services And Benefits

Maximize Clarity and Detail with FlyCRE's Professional Multispectral Imaging Services

How Multispectral Imaging Works

Comprehensive Moisture Insights

Unlike handheld or ground-based sensors, FlyCRE's drones provide a complete view of your course. Thermal imaging highlights over- and under-watered areas, enabling targeted moisture management. Integrate this data with on-ground measurements to achieve greater operational efficiency over time.

Inspection Efficiency

Drones cover every inch of your course with high-resolution multispectral data, streamlining inspection processes. Use our platform as the central hub for data-driven maintenance operations.

Optimized Chemical Treatments

Pinpoint treatment zones using automated hotspot detection, allocating resources precisely where they're needed, reducing waste, and improving results.

Data-Driven Progress Tracking

Monitor changes over time with side-by-side comparisons of improvements, regressions, and patterns. Track golfer traffic, cart paths, and equipment impacts, leveraging detailed KPIs, charts, and maps for actionable insights.

Enhanced Resource Allocation

Sort data by turf type, health, moisture, and thermal metrics to prioritize areas needing immediate attention, optimizing manpower and resource usage.

Benefits of Multispectral Imaging

Multispectral imaging is an advanced technology that captures image data at specific wavelengths across the electromagnetic spectrum. Unlike traditional photography, which only captures visible light, FlyCRE's multispectral imaging services provide detailed insights by capturing wavelengths beyond the visible spectrum. This comprehensive data enables enhanced detection and precision, making it invaluable across various industries.

Efficiency

Covers large areas quickly, saving time and resources.

We deploy drones equipped with multispectral sensors that capture images at different wavelengths as they fly over an area. These images are processed and layered to create actionable data for analysis. Our sensors are meticulously calibrated before each flight to ensure consistent and accurate data quality.

Multispectral Data

Multispectral cameras capture light reflectance at specific electromagnetic wavelengths, providing crucial information for analyzing vegetation health, soil properties, water quality, and material composition. Indices such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) are derived from this data to offer actionable insights.

Multispectral Technologies

Our drones are equipped with multispectral sensors, including high-resolution cameras with 3-5 lenses, each calibrated to different wavelengths. After capturing the data we use our advanced software to process and analyze the data.

Types of Multispectral Data Captured

Our multispectral imaging captures data across various wavelengths, providing valuable insights:

Visible Spectrum (RGB)

Standard color images that show what the human eye can see. Useful for general visualization and mapping.

Near-Infrared (NIR)

Captures light just beyond the visible spectrum. NIR imaging reveals details about vegetation health, water content, and plant stress that aren't visible in standard images.

Red Edge

A narrow band between visible red light and near-infrared. It's sensitive to chlorophyll content, helping assess plant vitality and detect diseases early.

Thermal Infrared

Measures temperature differences across surfaces. Useful for detecting irrigation issues, soil moisture levels, and identifying areas of heat loss or gain.

UltraViolet (UV)

Captures wavelengths shorter than visible light. UV imaging highlights specific material properties and can detect certain biological markers.

By analyzing this data, we derive indices like the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and other specialized metrics. These insights help you make informed decisions and take targeted actions.
