About The Class

All UAS Precision Agriculture Certification Courses are held at an 80-acre private estate winery located in the Sierra foothills near the historic towns of Auburn and Grass Valley, California. This site accommodates UAS autonomous data gathering flight missions.


This one-day course provides instruction for the use of drones to increase crop yields, monitor crop health, and maximize operating efficiencies throughout the crop growing season. Dronitek’s FAA-licensed instructor is a Subject Material Expert (SEM) who is well known throughout the UAS Precision Agriculture Industry. He will provide in-depth instruction about remote sensor technology, crop science, crop economics, data collection, data processing software platforms, grower deliverables, pricing models, marketing UAS services to growers, and much more.


Students will participate in a hands-on autonomous data capture flight mission and the use of a data processing software platform to produce grower crop report deliverables. Students receive a certificate of graduation and documentation of advanced professional training upon completion of this course.
