Drones | UAV technology applied to forestry
Reduces occupational risks and increases yields
This type of intervention with drones has the main objective of minimizing the risk of accidents due to falls at the level of workers with back packs, as well as reducing exposure to the use of phytosanitary products, etc. Given the results obtained in Forestal Argentina in the operational tests of the UAV technology, they concluded: "We are facing the future in reforestation."
UAVs, commonly known as drones, have the peculiarity of not having a pilot inside the aircraft, so it is directed by a person or external electronic system, which decides at any time the next step to follow. The pilot's skill, senses and expertise are replaced by highly accurate electronic sensors.
