In cooperation with the Animal ecology and multitrophic interactions lab one of several experimental sites within the EU-H2020 project “DIVERSify” (www.plant-teams.eu) was investigated using our MD4-1000 multicopter. The acquired RGB and CIR image data will be analyzed to estimate vegetative biomass of different crop species growing in monocultures and mixtures under different management intensities. A long-time aerial monitoring is planned for 2019.
