Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Smart technologies, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), remote sensing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, autonomous robotics, and Internet of Things, have become an integral part of precision agriculture and provide accessible, data-driven solutions for climate-resilient agricultural productivity. Quality data transformed to a useful format are significant to sustainable crop and animal management, used to increase productivity, environmental health, and the development of natural resources.
This Special Issue of Remote Sensing focuses on the “Application of UAV Images in Precision Agriculture” to deal with broad aspects of timely data collection and utilization for resilient precision farming.
