By combining the eBee SQ and senseFly’s advanced, long-range agricultural drone with Agribotix’s award-winning FarmLens cloud processing platform, the companies have created an easy-to-use solution perfectly optimized for the early identification and troubleshooting of crop issues.

Agribotix, a leader in drone-enabled agricultural intelligence, has partnered with senseFly, the world’s leading producer of professional fixed-wing drones, to offer a new combined solution for professional users.

The technology solution combines top drone, sensor, and agricultural data processing technologies to make collecting and analyzing aerial data easier than ever with several times more coverage per flight than possible with many quadcopter solutions.

By adopting the eBee SQ as its new fixed-wing drone platform, Agribotix is committed to sourcing the best hardware on the market to bundle with its award-winning FarmLens SaaS platform, a 100 percent agricultural data processing cloud solution.

The eBee SQ is built around Parrot's groundbreaking Sequoia sensor. It features multispectral sensors that capture calibrated data across four highly distinct spectral bands - near-infrared, red-edge, red, and green - plus RGB imagery in a single flight.

The FarmLens Professional subscription bundled with the eBee SQ allows users to perform the full crop scouting workflow in the field: fly large areas efficiently, capture ground truthing images, make notes, and share detailed information about trouble spots with farmers.

FarmLens users gain valuable insights about crop conditions without having to become experts in data processing.

Agribotix says the combined solution of the eBee SQ and FarmLens is a great fit for those looking for a simple yet powerful 100 percent agricultural solution.

The company says after evaluating the fixed-wing options available today, eBee SQ is the easiest to use long-range drone on the market. It also has the best-in-class agricultural sensor, while FarmLens does the heavy lifting in the background, returning superb quality data presentation via the Agribotix Digital Scouting Report and enabling farmers to make time-critical adjustments.

senseFly says the partnership creates a professional end-to-end solution that is easy to use.

By purchasing the combined product, customers receive full professional hardware support via senseFly's existing network of expert distribution partners.
