Agriculture; UAV remote sensing technology; agricultural modernization.Abstract
The application of UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) remote sensing technology in the field of agriculture has various advantages, such as high-resolution data acquisition, real-time monitoring of crop and soil conditions, relatively low operating costs, etc. However, it will also appear in the actual use of battery life, weather impact and other problems.To this end, the aim of this paper is to analyze the development history of UAV remote sensing technology and the challenges it faces, and to propose solutions accordingly.Through analyzing the related literature and personal research, this paper proposes software development, data sharing, the establishment of power exchange base station and other countermeasures for the problems that occur nowadays. Based on the above description, finally, it further looks forward to the future development of China's agricultural UAV remote sensing technology and puts forward some relevant suggestions, hoping to make the technology more effectively used in the process of China's agricultural modernization in the future.
