Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are becoming a
common tool in Precision Agriculture. Combined with different sensors and
devices, UAVs can be capturing high geo-referenced resolution images and enable
the acquisition of real-time crop-related data. We will go through the main
typologies and characteristics of UAVs, different sensors and utilities and
other applications of UAVs in agriculture.
