Micasense and QuestUAV team up for the dawn of a new era in multispectral imaging.

QuestUAV Ltd are proud to announce their new industrial grade compact mapper will be available with the Parrot Sequoia combined multi-band and RGB sensor. Announced February 9th at the World Ag Expo and launching next month, the new sensor covers four bands at 1.2 megapixels plus a 16 megapixel RGB sensor for the ultimate in multispectral accuracy. QuestUAV are one of the initial integrators of the device for Micasense in fixed wing drones, having already applied the RedEdge technology to their UAV range.

Single Flight Performance

Incorporated into the DATAhawk compact mapper, the Sequoia captures data near-infrared, red-edge, red and green at 1.2 MP alongside full RGB imagery at 16 MP. Analytical data is well covered, whilst also allowing the drone’s operator to fly single missions of up to an hour to collect high resolution imagery for both crop health index maps AND orthomosaics. Pix4Dmapper, the included professional photogrammetry software, makes discerning usable information for adjusting water and feed rates straightforward and can help lead the way to improved yields and profitability.

Availability

DATAhawk is in full production and available to order now with a range of sensors, including Sequoia and the QX1 20.1MP imaging unit.
