Farmbit

Comparison

Has this block actually earned the flight yet?

Drone mapping is valuable after the team already knows which block deserves closer detail. Farmbit is the earlier pass that narrows the first walk and tells you whether the tighter follow-up is worth paying for at all.

Do not fly first and ask questions later. Narrow the block first, then spend on detail.

Where the choice changes in the field

Question
Drone mapping vs Farmbit
Farmbit
Best for
Tighter structure inside one block after the team already narrowed the problem.
Ranking which block deserves the first walk and whether closer proof is worth it.
What the team receives
Detailed imagery that still needs interpretation and a short handoff.
One result page, a short note, and a recommendation on whether to escalate.
Operational mistake
Paying for a detailed mission before the team knows if the block matters this week.
Treating the first pass like final proof instead of a ranking step.
Best workflow
Use after the first pass and field check point to the same block.
Use before the closer spend so the team does not fly every uncertain block.

Fly when the block already earned it

  • You already know which block matters and need tighter spatial detail.
  • The field check confirmed the block still needs closer proof.
  • The team can act on a higher-resolution handoff immediately.

Start cheaper when it has not

  • You want to avoid paying for detailed capture on the wrong block.
  • You need a ranked walk order before the first field visit.
  • You want the result to say whether the next step should stay free, go mobile, or escalate to drone.
