FlyAgData: Field Intelligence Starts with Accurate Data

When a field becomes a source of data, agribusiness changes. Facts replace subjective assessments, analytics replace random decisions, and losses give way to full control over the technological process. FlyAgData – a Ukrainian digital system for collecting, transmitting, and processing agri-data – delivers exactly this advantage. It transforms agricultural machinery into a source of precise agronomic data, enabling effective management decisions with complete control over every field operation.

FlyAgData – Technology Developed to Meet Today’s Challenges

FlyAgData is a startup created by the R&D Center of FRENDT, a company that has been implementing advanced precision agriculture technologies in Ukraine for over a decade. The goal of the project was to provide farmers with a tool for complete control over field operations and microclimate – without complex integrations, costly services, or reliance on imports. The solution includes two key components:

• A digital controller that monitors all technological operations in real time;
• A mobile weather station that records microclimate parameters directly from the field.

Together, these components create an integrated farm management ecosystem that leaves no room for guesswork.

FlyAgData Controller: The Digital Brain of Agricultural Machinery

The FlyAgData controller is the system’s core component, installed on any agricultural implement – tractor, sprayer, seeder, cultivator, or spreader – to record real-time parameters of each technological operation. It logs travel speed, fuel consumption, deviations from the set rate, idle periods, and field processing quality, providing a full digital representation of the process without operator intervention.

Based on this data, farmers gain not only current process monitoring but also in-depth analytics: verification of seeding uniformity, compliance with prescription/application maps during spraying, cost analysis per implement, and identification of operator errors or downtime. This creates an evidence base for agronomic reports, which can be used both for internal analysis and for external verification by auditors, customers, or certification bodies.

Thanks to compatibility with machinery of various brands and generations, the controller easily integrates into any farming operation – provided basic smart sensors are available. All collected data can be automatically transferred to the enterprise’s accounting systems or professional agronomic software. The controller’s operating principle eliminates human-factor influence: information is recorded during operations without the need for manual entry or post-operation data collection.

The complete history of all operations is stored, forming a basis for comparative analysis and strategic planning. Remote access enables an agronomist, manager, or operator to view the current field situation from a smartphone or computer – regardless of their location.

FlyAgData Mobile Weather Station: Accurate On-Field Climate Data in Real Time

The FlyAgData mobile weather station is a portable device that records microclimate conditions directly in the zone where agricultural operations are carried out. Mounted on the roof of the machinery working in the field, it collects data from the exact location – not from a generalized or non-localized source, and not from a distant weather station. This allows agronomists to obtain local weather parameters instantly, without delays, generalizations, or distortions.

The device measures:

• Air and/or soil temperature;

• Humidity;

• Wind direction and speed;

• Atmospheric pressure and dew point (optional).

All parameters are displayed in a web interface or mobile application, enabling timely and precise decision-making. With FlyAgData, farmers can choose the optimal moment for spraying, sowing, fertilizing, or irrigation, avoiding unnecessary costs, repeat trips, or yield losses.

Beyond agriculture, the mobile weather station also proves useful in other industries:

• Construction – monitoring weather conditions during work at height, with lifting equipment, or when handling hazardous materials;
• Scientific research – enabling measurements at various points in the landscape without complex logistics;
• Rescue operations – providing critical microclimate data in emergency zones.

Key advantages of the FlyAgData mobile weather station include high accuracy and rapid response to weather changes, significantly enhancing operational efficiency. The device requires no complex setup and operates “out of the box.” Its lightweight yet durable construction ensures easy transportation and use in the field, along with compatibility with popular agricultural platforms. As a result, users gain a complete tool that saves time, reduces costs, and delivers a new level of climate control – local, precise, and truly valuable for decision-making in dynamic environments.

Ease of Setup

FlyAgData requires no complicated configuration or lengthy installation. Mounting the equipment takes about 60 minutes. Once launched, it operates automatically. Technical support is available online or on-site anywhere in Ukraine. This is a solution that doesn’t create new problems – it solves existing ones.

An Investment with Predictable Returns

FlyAgData is not just another set of gadgets – it is an infrastructure solution that enables agribusiness to operate with precision, efficiency, and transparency. The system becomes an integral part of business strategy: it supports real-time decision-making, eliminates human-factor risks, and lays the foundation for increased profitability.

FlyAgData – intelligence in every decision, on every hectare, in every operation.
