AGTECH MASTERY: Drone Data Metrics (Email Course)
A Free 7-day email short course focused on AgTech specific data metrics you need to know!
If you want to learn more about the core sets of drone data you can utilise for enhancing agricultural efficiencies, this is the course for you!
Sign up for free, and receive one email a day for 7-days, each packed with info you can use to jump right into leveraging powerful drone-derived stats for Precision Agriculture.
Focus crops?
Orchards (trees), Vineyards, and Berries
A recurring remark from clients in my line of work has been, “I don’t understand or know much about the metrics I can use on my farm once I’ve had a drone survey.”
The aim of creating a week's-worth of study material in email format is to provide readers with an easy to digest yet high-impact crash course into drone derived data metrics useful in the agricultural / farming production context.
The more we learn about the details of AgTech and the nuances of Precision Agriculture, the more we can take advantage of the tech and the opportunities on offer in this new age of agriculture.
Which reminds me of a quote…
“You are like a hunter: your knowledge of every detail of the forest and of the ecosystem as a whole will give you many more options for survival and success.”

Why email format?
Emails are easy to sign up to (low barrier to entry) and easy to distribute to anywhere in the world, and with a small amount of automation built in I'm able to reach students promptly and consistently, no matter the time or day.
You can re-read emails, bookmark them, print them, forward them, share them, and more. You'll never lose access to the information in your inbox, and it's always there for you to review again (and again) if you want to.
Lastly you can always hit "reply" and connect with me directly with questions, or constructive feedback. Basically, email is a seamless form of communication that you're probably already familiar with.
