This lightweight drone gathers high-resolution aerial data that enables farmers, businesses and public authorities to optimise planning, land management and increase land use efficiency.
PrecisionHawk aims to make farmers and other businesses more efficient and productive with its drones and simple cloud-based software. PrecisionHawk uses drones in combination with software to collect, process and analyse aerial data.
For example, the system can provide information on the status and health of crops and soil, enabling farmers to adapt their practices to achieve higher yields. With PrecisionHawk, farmers can identify sections threatened by drought, estimate the growth stage of crops, detect plant diseases, collect water samples and even use thermal sensors to take the temperature of cattle to determine whether they are sick. The speed of this data collection and processing is very attractive to agricultural and livestock management.
PrecisionHawk is an information-delivery company focused on driving sustainable solutions and economic growth.

Why you should care
Feeding a world population of more than 9 billion people by 2050 will require a doubling of food production. With its automated data collection and analysis software, PrecisionHawk helps farmers maximise yields without expanding land or increasing resource inputs.
How the Global Goals are addressed
Clean Water and Sanitation
PrecisionHawk gives farmers more data on their crops, enabling them to allocate their water resources more efficiently, which is especially important in drought-prone areas.
Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure
PrecisionHawk provides solutions for better resource allocation in the agricultural sector, which can help decrease water and fertiliser use without decreasing yields.
Life on Land
Using less fertilizers, fungicides and pesticides for crops leads to cost savings for farmers, and benefits the health of life on land and in rivers.
