How it works v2.5 | Skippy Scout

How Skippy Scout Works

Skippy is a mobile app that can be downloaded for use on a smartphone. For a monthly fee, starting at £30 for a single user, you can download the app. By importing maps, you can choose points in fields you want to view.

Skippy will automatically fly your drone to these points and send you high resolution, leaf level images.

Then Skippy analyses the captured images and sends you a field report, with % healthy crop, unhealthy crop, weeds and insect damage. You will need:

iPhone or iPad
A DJI drone (or use our flight service)
