The invention provides an air-ground cooperative
pesticide application method and
system. The method comprises the steps that: target information of a to-be-operated
orchard is obtained, wherein the target information includes
geographic feature information and
fruit tree feature information; according to the target information, a collaborative operation path of a
plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle and a ground
pesticide application unmanned vehicle is determined; and the
plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle and the ground
pesticide application unmanned vehicle are controlled to operate according to the collaborative operation path. According to the air-ground cooperative
pesticide application method and
system of the invention, the collaborative operation path is planned according to the feature information of orchards and fruit trees; on this basis, the
plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle and the ground
pesticide application unmanned vehicle are controlled to operate according to the planned collaborative operation path; the ground
pesticide application unmanned vehicle is utilized to perform supplementary operation on an operation blind area of the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle in an air-ground collaborative pesticide spraying mode, and therefore, pesticide liquid can fully cover the fruit trees, the pesticide
utilization rate is improved to the maximum extent, negative effects caused by unreasonable pesticide spraying are reduced, environmental
pollution is reduced, the pesticide spraying
control mode and effect are optimized,
fruit tree diseases and
insect pests are effectively prevented and treated, and stable yield and yield increase of fruits can be effectively guaranteed.
