The "droneONtrap" project, in collaboration with company Gruppo FOS, foresees the creation of a system capable of reducing the use of chemical substances in the agri-food, forestry and environmental fields through the application in synergy of data provided by insect traps and multispectral surveys using drones, the latter specifically developed by MAVTech. The system will allow to evaluate in real time the health status of plants, allowing the development of high precision predictive models to help growers to make crucial decisions in critical stages of crops.

The project is funded by the European programme "DIVA" which aims to support the emergence and development of new digitech value chains for the agri-food, forestry and environmental sectors.

droneONtrap was the only Italian project to be awarded funding in the "2nd Call DIVA FUNDED PROJECTS - Demonstration".
