Temperatures
Measure crop temperature
From the drone's radiometric thermal photos, a map of the field in degrees Celsius, with the actual distance of every shot in the calculation.
A plant short of water closes its stomata, transpires less and warms up. That is why a temperature map shows water stress before it is visible, together with waterlogging, irrigation that does not reach and canal leaks. Agronix reads radiometric thermal photos, converts every pixel into degrees Celsius and builds the field map.
A temperature on every pixel
Each thermal photo becomes a map in degrees Celsius with the actual shooting distance, taken from the drone's laser rangefinder or from flight altitude. The photos are then merged into the field map with a cool-to-warm scale and statistics for every field.
- Actual distance of every shot
- Cool-to-warm scale
- Statistics per field
Every thermal survey on one page
The Temperatures page lists the thermal surveys of every farm with date, fields and values. Each map opens on the field and downloads as GeoTIFF for GIS software.
- List by farm and field
- GeoTIFF in degrees Celsius
- Map on the field page too

How it works
- 01
Fly with thermal
Best in the warm hours, when differences are strongest.
- 02
Upload the photos
Agronix recognises radiometric thermal photos.
- 03
Read the map
Warm zones transpire less, cool ones may be wet.
- 04
Go and check
The warmest spots are checked in the field.
In detail

- On 167 photos: map and source photos 0.03 °C apart on average, 90 % within 0.17 °C.
- Uses
- Water stress, irrigation, waterlogging, canal and pipe leaks.
