MicaSense RedEdge-P: calibrated multispectral imaging for analytical missions
The MicaSense RedEdge-P is a professional multispectral imaging sensor designed for analytical missions requiring accurate, repeatable data. Built for precision agriculture, environmental monitoring, and research applications, RedEdge-P combines five discrete multispectral bands with an integrated RGB sensor in a compact, UAV-ready payload. Delivered new, it supports workflows where data quality and consistency are essential.
Multispectral and RGB imaging for detailed analysis
RedEdge-P captures blue, green, red, red edge, and near-infrared data simultaneously with a high-resolution RGB reference image. Global shutters across all sensors ensure clean capture without motion distortion, while synchronized imaging supports accurate spatial alignment across bands. This configuration supports reliable generation of vegetation indices and analytical datasets.
Radiometric tools supporting consistent data quality
An integrated Downwelling Light Sensor 2 measures ambient lighting conditions during each flight, while the included calibration reflectance panel supports reflectance correction workflows. These tools help ensure that collected data can be compared across flights, dates, and environments, supporting long-term monitoring and research programs.
