Help evaluate the use of remote sensing and sprayer drones in agriculture.
Interest in new technologies and science background.
Dr. Randy R. Price
Drs. James Villegas and David Moseley
Help perform in-field research and flights on how well these drones perform in agricultural operations.
Perform and collect at least one data set concerning issues with sprayer or remote sensing drones. Most likely that will be canopy infiltration, but drift and safe operation practices are also a concern. Task can be derived by the student themselves (with approval) or helping with one of the on-going projects.
