Abstract: An agricultural monitoring system, the agricultural monitoring system comprising: an imaging sensor, configured and operable to acquire image data at submillimetric image resolution of parts of an agricultural area in which crops grow, when the imaging sensor is airborne; a communication module, configured and operable to transmit to an external system image data content which is based on the image data acquired by the airborne imaging sensor; and a connector operable to connect the imaging sensor and the communication module to an airborne platform1.
Abstract: A system and method for determining an attribute of a plant may include obtaining, by a camera, an image of a region; producing, by a rangefinder, a measurement of a distance from the rangefinder to a plant in the region; and determining the height of the plant by correlating data in the image with the measurement.
