Six Mission Profiles.
Decision-grade outcomes.
Every Atlas mission is engineered around a specific decision an agronomist or operations director needs to make. Pick the outcome — we pick the payload, the altitude, and the deliverable.
Pick by the decision you need to make
Filter mentally by what you'll do with the output. Each card lists payload, deliverable, turnaround SLA, and measured economic value from 2023–2024 ground-truth audits.
Crop Health Survey
Detect chlorosis, nitrogen leaching and canopy decline 7–14 days before visible symptoms appear at row level.
- Payload
- MicaSense RedEdge-P dual multispectral · 10 calibrated bands
- Deliverable
- NDVI / NDRE / RECI raster + zoning shapefile + agronomy PDF
- Application
- In-season nutrient management on cereals, oilseeds, pivot-irrigated row crops
- Decision
- Variable-rate nitrogen prescription and scouting priority queue
Thermal Anomaly Detection
Locate failed pivot emitters, sub-surface moisture stress and disease cold-zones at ±0.1°C sensitivity.
- Payload
- DJI Zenmuse H20T radiometric LWIR · 640×512 · ±2°C absolute
- Deliverable
- Radiometric GeoTIFF + anomaly point layer (GeoJSON) + intervention map
- Application
- Center-pivot wheat, sugar beet, vineyard and orchard irrigation audits
- Decision
- Same-day irrigation crew dispatch, emitter replacement queue
Stand Count & Emergence
Quantify plant population, row gaps and emergence uniformity within 14 days of planting at 99.4% accuracy.
- Payload
- Sony α7R IV (61MP RGB) · 3.28cm GSD photogrammetry stack
- Deliverable
- Plants/m² raster, gap-zone shapefile, replant cost model PDF
- Application
- Corn, sunflower, cotton, sugar beet at V1–V4
- Decision
- Replant ROI ruling and seed-rate calibration for next cycle
Yield Estimation Flight
Forecast field tonnage ±6% vs combine-monitor truth using late-season NDVI + biomass volumetrics.
- Payload
- RedEdge-P + L1 LiDAR biomass volumetry (selected crops)
- Deliverable
- Yield raster (t/ha), zone-level forecast CSV, harvest logistics PDF
- Application
- Wheat, barley, maize, oilseed rape in last 30 days pre-harvest
- Decision
- Harvest sequencing, drying capacity booking, off-take contract sizing
Infrastructure Inspection
Visual + thermal inspection of irrigation rigs, storage silos, drainage canals and PV arrays without dispatching crews.
- Payload
- RGB 50MP zoom · radiometric LWIR · LiDAR profile (optional)
- Deliverable
- Defect catalogue PDF, geo-tagged photo set, 3D mesh of structures
- Application
- Center pivots, drip headers, grain silos, on-farm solar, drainage networks
- Decision
- Maintenance queue prioritisation and capex budget defense
Compliance Documentation
Produce audit-ready documentation for subsidy schemes, traceability programmes and ESG reporting.
- Payload
- RGB orthomosaic + multispectral + flight log packet (signed)
- Deliverable
- Sealed GeoPDF, hashed flight log, parcel-level KML/SHP
- Application
- EU CAP eco-schemes, RSPO/RTRS audits, lender ESG reporting, insurance
- Decision
- Submit dossier directly to regulator, lender or buyer
