OverviewTerraScout is an autonomous field scout engineered for high‑resolution ground imaging and the generation of near real‑time prescriptions to support precision farming operations.
Key Capabilities- High‑resolution ground imagery capture: ground‑level mapping designed for precision crop management.
- Fully autonomous operation: system operates without on‑board human control to scout and manage fields.
- Onboard edge compute: delivers near real‑time maps and prescription outputs to user applications.
- Large mapping swath: 60' mapping width to increase acres mapped per hour and reduce field turns.
- Multi‑camera imaging with integrated lighting: eight cameras and dedicated lighting enable mapping day or night.
- Satellite connectivity: Starlink‑enabled for continuous connectivity and remote monitoring.
- Minimal field disturbance: low ground pressure design to allow anytime field access.
- Crop compatibility: optimized track spacing for standard 30" corn and soybean rows.
Applications / Benefits- Generates near real‑time prescriptions to optimise field operations and address multiple agronomic challenges.
- Reduces scouting guesswork via high‑resolution imagery and automated detection/prescription workflows.
- Enables large‑area mapping with minimized turning, lowering soil and crop disturbance.
AvailabilityEarly access planned for 2026. Product is marketed with a waitlist for early‑delivery priority.
