Abstract: DRONE-BASED CROP HEALTH MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF ABSTRACT A drone-based crop health monitoring system (100) is disclosed for monitoring crops in an agricultural field. The system (100) comprises a drone unit (102), a camera unit (104), a memory (106), a user interface unit (108), a communication unit (110), and a processing unit (112). The drone unit (102) autonomously navigates the agricultural field based on a field map, and the camera unit (104) captures multi-spectral image data of the crops. The processing unit (112) analyzes the image data using an artificial intelligence-based analysis model to identify a crop condition and determine a corresponding geographical location. The geographical location is marked on the field map, and crop-health information is generated. The system (100) further tracks changes in crop conditions during different monitoring instances and supports targeted irrigation and fertilization based on the identified crop condition. Claims: 10, Figures: 4 Figure 1A is selected.
