MAPIR multispectral imaging camera sensors can be attached on to drones to enable farmers, agriculturalists, etc to effectively manage crops, soil, fertilising, irrigation, etc. The MAPIR Survey3 range of cameras are compact, affordable and come with a range of 6 filter and 2 lens angle options (87° and 41°). This Survey3 W camera features a 3.37mm 87° wide angle of view (an equivalent 12mm lens on 35mm SLR) which is comparable with many drone cameras and therefore simpler to set up flight plans. SeeSense also stock the standard Survey3 N camera however not all drones are suited for using the narrow 41° lens angle of view.
MAPIR cameras are widely used for checking a wide range of vegetation, mineral & burn indices including:
- Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)
- Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI)
- Chlorophyll Vegetation Index (CVI)
- Modified Sample Ratio (MSR)
- Iron Oxide Ratio (IOR)
- Burn Area Index (BAI)AND MORE!
For further details of how these cameras are used please refer to each camera below or download our DATASHEET from the TAB below.
We supply all MAPIR Survey3 cameras with an external advanced V2 GNSS receiver (other choices available) utilising a u-blox MAX-M10S module to provide even better image geolocation accuracy compared to earlier models. This provides instant geo-tagging for every captured image which can be processed on MAPIR, Pix4D, Metashape, DroneDeploy, One Button, C3D, MapsMadeEasy, and other software.
The MAPIR T3-R50 or T3-R125 diffuse reflection ground calibration target is highly recommended to provide a highly accurate calibrated reflectance values for captured media.
Optional lens protectors are recommended to protect the camera lenses from flying debris during take-off and landings.
