Topic:  Integration of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems into Precision Agriculture: Putting the Power of Remote Sensing into the Hands of Farmers

Date:  Wednesday, October 26th

Time:  Noon

Location:  Space Studies Library

A study of the legal, technical and economic integration of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) into modern precision agriculture with a focus on inexpensive and easy to use aircraft.  A comparison of satellite, manned aircraft and sUAS will be used to determine the relative usefulness of sUAS in contrast to other proven remote sensing platforms in crop analysis.
