Specialist UAV services for Forestry & Arboriculture

Cole Aero RPAS logos (1).png

Cole Aero has a specialist team for Forestry & Arboriculture.

Based on a strong background in the agricultural sector, our CAA approved commercial drone operators have extensive experience of traditional agricultural and land management operations. This includes experienced boom sprayer operators holding traditional PA1 & PA2 pesticide application licenses with experience in arable, forage and livestock operations. 

Our trusted services aim to bring agricultural operations the latest technology and methods to enhance traditional services. Giving a highly accurate, real time data with detail never seen before in traditional methods. Cole Aero aims to reduce costs, wastage and the need for heavy on-land machinery operations while increasing efficiency and profitability. 

For more information please see below services offered, we also offer bespoke services to suit your requirements. 

Multispectral Imagery and Crop Mapping

Using the most up to date multispectral camera equipped drones with RTK guidance and base stations for increased accuracy, Cole Aero provide multispectral imaging to produce data in the following formats:

- Vegetation index mapping for formulating variable rate treatment maps for use in fertiliser application, reducing input costs and requirement for costly fertiliser. 

- Weed/Pest identification & treatment maps for producing treatment maps for spot treatment operations or sectional control.

- Digital surface mapping, this enables identification of land liable to runoff/erosion as well as low spots liable to flooding and drainage issues. Crop volume measurements can also be taken. 

Data can be delivered in the above data sets in formats customised for the machinery used to apply pesticides and organic or manufactured fertilisers. Alternatively this data can be sent to your agronomist for your chosen agronomy provider to produce maps and order pesticides or fertiliser required to treat areas. Cole Aero are also happy to work alongside such specialists to ensure efficient seamless services. 

Why choose UAV multispectral imagry:

- Higher detail than tradtional methods

- real time, not reliant on satellite imagry

- Save input costs on chemical and fertiliser

- more enviromentally friendly imput
