Increasing global climate change requires the application of modern methods in irrigation of agricultural crops. In this context, the research in this paper was based on the application of modern hardware and software solutions in determining the corn water requirements. Research was carried out at three locations: Srebrenik, Kalesija and Kakanj in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Detailed research of all climate, biological, geographical and soil characteristics was carried out during the vegetation period of 2018 in order to use the results as an input to determine corn water requirements using AquaCrop 6.1 software. In addition to using several software, certain activities were carried out by using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The corn water requirements during 2018 on three analyzed locations ranged from 405 to 530 mm, the highest value was in Kakanj, and the lowest in Kalesija. When it comes to the monthly level, during almost all month’s effective rainfall was enough to cover corn needs for the water, the exception is August, when a certain water deficit (56-67 mm) was obtained for all locations.
