We are experts in understanding and delivering the benefits that data intelligence can bring to all aspects of the agriculture industry — from small holdings to large, corporate operations we are able to bring efficiency savings, reduce costs and provide trusted information that enables better decision making.

Our technology is appropriate for all sectors of agriculture — broadacre, horticulture, viticulture, livestock production — as we enable growers, agriculture businesses and professionals to save time and money, and increase profitability.

We do that by providing services and tools based on scientific rigour, combining our deep spectral and sensing knowledge with agronomic expertise of partners, and years of on-farm validation before bringing anything to market so you can trust the insights we deliver. Choose from:

We serve clients over an area greater than 5M hectares and who use our technology as part of their decision agriculture management of broadacre and horticulture crops, tree crops, vineyards and pastures for livestock production. All share the need for trusted, timely intelligence that brings far greater return their technology investment. Requirements vary greatly, from resolution and update rates required to the type of information needed, but universally the need to easily interpret results, make decisions and take action is something we solve for all.

As a result, we work with all types of sensor data (visible, near infrared, thermal, radar, IoT) from a wide range of platforms (satellites, aircraft, drones, ground-based) to deliver unique, best-in-class solutions to meet a range of price points. For example, choosing a fusion of visible and radar data improves the accuracy of our service and enables all-weather imaging, but is more costly than the single sensor solution.  

Some examples of our agriculture services are shown below, but for more information about how we can help you save time and money, and increase profitability, please get in touch, we'd be pleased to help.

Crop Classification

Accurate, scalable crop classification using remote sensing

With climate change posing a real threat to food supplies worldwide, sustainability of food production and the ability to feed the world's population are becoming increasingly critical — not only for for producers, distributers and sellers but also for governments and communities globally. Remote sensing can bring certainty to food supply estimation with its ability to detect what crops are growing and area coverage, enabling more accurate yield prediction months before harvest and also facilitating more accurate carbon footprint modelling of agriculture.

Pasture Biomass Mapping

Accurate mapping irrespective of cloud cover

Trusted, accurate mapping of pasture biomass bring another level of decision making to anyone working with pastures, and offers the potential for more efficient practices, optimised feed management and the avoidance of over-grazing. Removing the need to estimate biomass by eye, plate-meter or drone/aircraft flights, satellite-derived biomass mapping saves time and money. Here we share our latest case study, where a best-practice test farm in Australia has finished trialling our pasture biomass service and is utilising it to develop optimal stock movements, improve sustainability and drive greater efficiencies.

Land Recovery after Forest Fires

Kangaroo Island, South Australia

There is an increasing need for affordable, effective monitoring of damage and recovery related to wildfires, with the recent incidents in Perth, Australia being only the latest example. Understanding the damage done to land, rivers and other parts of the vital environmental eco-system is critical to decisions made in the months and years thereafter, from monitoring run-offs to soil recovery and vegetation regrowth. With forests covering millions of acres of land worldwide, and bushfires generally impacting large tracts of land, satellite-based imaging services from D-CAT can play a key role in decision making during and after the event.
