weedSAT: how satellite imagery is being used to pinpoint weeds

In this episode, Tim Neale from DataFarming explains a new precision ag tool, weedSAT. WeedSAT is a satellite-powered weed detection tool developed with investment from GRDC through the Grain Automate initiative. It uses high-resolution commercial satellite imagery to identify larger, hard-to-kill weeds across broadacre paddocks. This enables targeted spraying using existing boom spray section control systems before growers even enter the field. We also hear from Precision Ag consultant Bindi Isbister, who has been trialling the technology with Western Australian growers with good success.
