Remote Sensing Solution
Palm Robotics has developed the first-of-its-kind, end-to-end, cloud-based platform for the early detection of the red palm weevil. The cost-effective and affordable solution prevents tree mortality and replacement, reduces maintenance/growing costs and water usage, and increases yields and profitability. In addition, by significantly lowering the level of pesticide use, the system prevents export ineligibility. Utilizing the latest technological advances, the system – based on precision agriculture through the use of remote sensors and drone and satellite imagery – delivers precise reports on infestation, damage assessment, nutritional analysis and yield estimates. Providing actionable insights and specific alerts – to the level of the individual tree – the system enables accurate decision-making and the timely action required to save endangered trees.
The platform is designed for agronomists, growers with large plantations, agricultural associations, public and private institutions that manage palm plantations, and authorities that grow date palms for gardening and decorative purposes.
Analyzing data from the drone and satellite imagery of palm canopies, this revolutionary solution tracks and monitors minute changes in date palms and builds a multispectral profile of each area and each palm tree, enabling the identification of trees under stress.
- Larvae burrow into the heart of the palm dates causing irreversible damage
- Results in costly yield reduction and rapid tree death
- Estimated annual global damage: USD 2+ Billion
- Early detection is critical
