Micasense RedEdge-P for SkyScout Series

MicaSense RedEdge-P: Five-Band Multispectral Sensor With Panchromatic Output for Enterprise Precision Agriculture Programs on the SkyScout Series

The MicaSense RedEdge-P is a professional single-sensor multispectral payload built by AgEagle in the USA, purpose-built for enterprise precision agriculture, vegetation mapping, and plant health programs on the WISPR SkyScout Series.

It captures five spectral bands simultaneously across the blue through near-infrared spectrum, combined with a high-resolution panchromatic band that produces pan-sharpened output resolutions of 2 cm / 0.8 in per pixel at 60 m — twice the ground resolution of the RedEdge-MX. 

Purpose-built optics, narrowband scientific-grade filters, and a rigorous factory calibration process deliver the radiometric consistency and data repeatability that enterprise programs require across season-long canopy analysis workflows.

For fleet operators and program managers, the RedEdge-P's data pipeline is built for operational efficiency at scale. CFexpress removable storage supports up to 3 raw DNG captures per second across all bands simultaneously, enabling faster flight speeds and immediate multi-flight turnaround without field computer dependency between missions.

The included DLS 2 light sensor monitors ambient illumination continuously throughout each flight, while the calibrated reflectance panel establishes a radiometric baseline on the ground before each mission — together ensuring that spectral data remains consistent and comparable across multiple flights and varying light conditions. The 5.1 MP panchromatic band achieves a ground sample distance of 3.98 cm per pixel at 120 m / 400 ft AGL, with multispectral bands at 7.7 cm per pixel at the same altitude.

MicaSense RedEdge-P Mission-Ready Capabilities

• Panchromatic band: pan-sharpened output reaches 2 cm / 0.8 in per pixel at 60 m.
• Five spectral bands: blue, green, red, red edge, and near-IR captured simultaneously per flight.
• Global shutter: all bands trigger together for distortion-free, pixel-aligned aerial imagery.
• DLS 2 light sensor: continuous illumination monitoring sustains radiometric accuracy in flight.
• Calibrated reflectance panel: ground-based baseline calibration supports repeatable data quality.
• Fast capture pipeline: up to 3 raw DNG images per second supports efficient fleet coverage rates.
• CFexpress storage: removable card enables immediate multi-flight turnaround without field computers.
• Panchromatic resolution: 5.1 MP band achieves 3.98 cm GSD at 120 m / 400 ft AGL.
• Multi-index output pipeline: generates RGB, NDVI, NDRE, CIR, and additional vegetation composites.
• American-made: designed and built in the USA by AgEagle for professional program deployment.

The MicaSense RedEdge-P addresses the core operational requirement of enterprise precision agriculture and vegetation monitoring programs: a calibrated, repeatable multispectral sensor that produces analysis-ready data across every flight without introducing variability from changing light conditions or field logistics.

Its five-band spectral coverage, panchromatic pan-sharpening capability, and CFexpress-based removable storage make it a dependable primary payload for SkyScout Series fleets running plant health, phenotyping, disease identification, and season-long canopy analysis programs.

Dronefly supports enterprise operators in building SkyScout Series payload programs around sensors that deliver consistent, production-ready data, and the MicaSense RedEdge-P is a strong fit for precision agriculture and vegetation monitoring fleets where radiometric accuracy and operational efficiency across multiple flights are program requirements.
