  • More about Aerial Robotics in Agriculture: Parafoils, Blimps, Aerostats, and Kites

Aerial vehicles, such as drones and other semi-autonomous and autonomous robots, are being evaluated for their potential to revolutionize agricultural procedures through spectral analysis of terrains, soils, crops, water resources, diseases, floods, drought, and farm activities. This volume provides information on these vehicles and their use in experimental farms and fields, and expects them to change and improve the use of the sky in agricultural endeavors in the near future.

This extensive volume offers a wealth of information on aerial vehicles and their potential to revolutionize agricultural practices through spectral analysis of terrains, soils, crops, water resources, diseases, floods, drought, and farm activities. Numerous semi-autonomous and autonomous (robotic) aerial vehicles are explored for their efficiency in providing detailed spectral data about agricultural regions and individual farms. Among them, small drone aircraft, such as fixed-winged and copter models, have already gained widespread attention among farmers. These drones are rapidly spreading across farms worldwide. However, there are many more aerial robots that are utilized in greater detail during farming.

In this volume, the focus is on aerial vehicles such as parafoils, blimps, aerostats, and kites, and how they are being evaluated for use in experimental farms and fields. A few aerial vehicles, such as robotic parafoils, have been adopted to procure aerial spectral data and visual imagery to aid agronomic procedures. These and other aerial robots are expected to transform and improve the use of the sky in agricultural endeavors and the way we conduct agronomic procedures in the near future. This volume serves as a valuable resource for agricultural researchers, professors, and students, as well as the general public interested in aerial vehicles.
