The DJI Mavic 3 Multispectral features a multispectral imaging system for collecting data used for crop monitoring. “The Mavic 3 Multispectral is the essential solution for a wide range of application scenarios in the fields of precision agriculture and environmental monitoring,” said the announcement.
“The launch of the DJI Mavic 3 Multispectral will help farmers around the world improve the quality and efficiency of their production, reduce costs and increase their incomes, while promoting the development of modern agriculture.” , said Ronnie Liu, Regional Head of North America at DJI Agriculture.
Weighing in at 951 grams and designed to fold up and fit into a regular bag, the Mavic 3 Multispectral is more portable than most drones for precision agriculture.
Specs from DJI:
RGB and multispectral imaging systems
The Mavic 3 Multispectral (also known as the Mavic 3M) uses a two-in-one camera system to display and collect a wide range of information that users can turn into results in the field.
The RGB camera is equipped with a 4/3″ CMOS and 20MP image sensor and a mechanical shutter with a maximum speed of 1/2000. Realizing high-speed continuous shooting with a maximum interval of 0.7 seconds and quick collection of image information, it greatly improves work efficiency in the field.
In addition to the RGB camera, the 4-lens multispectral camera provides more accurate directional information and senses details that the human eye cannot detect, helping users to better understand crop conditions. . ‘s four multispectral cameras each capture 5 million pixels and can scan the following wavelengths:
- Green (G): 560nm ± 16nm
- Red (R): 650nm±20nm
- Red Edge (RE): 730 nm ± 20 nm
- Near infrared (NIR) 860 nm ± 26 nm
Combining these two cameras, the Mavic 3M enables applications such as high-precision aerial surveys, crop growth monitoring, and natural resource surveys.
RTK centimeter-level positioning
The Mavic 3M includes an RTK module that provides centimeter-level positioning. The drone, camera, and RTK module are synchronized at the microsecond level to obtain accurate position information of the imaging center of each camera. This allows the Mavic 3M to perform highly accurate aerial surveys without using ground control points. And with a battery life of up to 43 minutes, his Mavic 3M allows him to complete surveying and mapping operations over an area as large as 2 square kilometers in a single flight.
Designed for safer operation
Mavic 3M is equipped with O3 video transmission, which integrates 2-channel transmit signal and 4-channel receive signal, supporting 15km ultra-long transmission distance. For added safety, the Mavic 3M is equipped with Omnidirectional Obstacle Sensing, which enables it to detect and avoid obstacles in all directions with precision.
infinite possibilities
Assisting professional users and partners in various fields, the Mavic 3M can be integrated into various ecosystems to provide endless possibilities for smart agriculture. Through Pilot 2’s built-in DJI Cloud API, which is based on the MQTT protocol, users can directly connect his Mavic 3M to third-party cloud his platform to collect information, live video, photo data, and other information I can do it. Develop a dedicated app. The Mavic 3M also supports Mobile SDK 5 (MSDK5), allowing users to easily develop dedicated control apps for scenarios such as intelligent monitoring.
New tools for precision agriculture
The Mavic 3M is useful in various work scenarios. You can conduct ground-like aerial surveys in forests and orchards. DJI Maps and the DJI SmartFarm platform generate NDVI vegetation indices to provide data for more efficient and localized crop treatments. Automated field scouting can detect crop anomalies and perform intelligent analysis that allows one person to manage 70 hectares of land.
