An over-arching aim is to develop new ground models (within AGDISP platform) and extend existing aerial modelling with extensive libraries, features and toolboxes. This project looks at total pesticide accountancy – on-target coverage optimisation and off-target loss minimisation. It also covers row, tree and vine crops and forestry, and droplet and vapour drift. The main objectives of this project are: Spray deposition within canopies, Droplet and vapour drift research and modelling, Technologies (sensors, DRTs, etc).
