Algerian Perspectives for UAV-based Remote Sensing Technologies and Artificial Intelligence in Precision Agriculture

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are considered emerging innovative technologies, equipped with different sensors they can offer various services and applications. It is possible to exploit unmanned aerial vehicles to capture high spatial resolution images and high temporal resolution images, which could be helpful in many smart farming applications. We expect that these innovations will revolutionize agriculture, enabling to take faster decisions, and promise major cost savings and production enhancements. Precision agriculture is based on the use of the right process, with the right quantities, at the proper place and time, according to the targeted application. In this paper, we address the prevalent applications of UAVs and artificial intelligence in precision agriculture and their benefits in Algeria.
