Pix4Dfields agriculture index – explore different vegetation indices

Agriculture is one of—if not the biggest industry in the world.

The production of food is critical to the world’s populations. To feed everyone, the combination of sensors, drones, machine learning, advanced analytics and mathematical algorithms all come together to provide efficiency and accuracy for the agricultural industry.

Pix4Dfields, aerial crop analysis was created to cater to all primary agricultural practices.

The company opened a new office in July 2017 Berlin to address the agricultural industry. The resulting technology was new fast processing that provides accurate and instant results with an easy-to-use interface and tools designed for agricultural workflows.
