NDVI Plant Health Monitoring

NDVI is a way to measure plant health on your golf course and identify hot spots. Drone
sensors detect indicators invisible to the naked eye, utilizing light reflections and absorptions

to calculate an NDVI score. Healthy plants absorb most of the visible light while reflecting a

large amount of the near-infrared light. Unhealthy plants do the opposite. NDVI is an
extremely helpful tool to assess plant health, and understanding it is important reducing

irrigation and maintenance costs for your golf course.
