SEQUOIA - User Guide
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing Sequoia, the sensor specifically for precision
farming. Sequoia is one of the lightest sensors on the market. It
provides extremely accurate images:
•16 Mpx RGB sensor: photos of your crops using visible wavelength.
•Four narrow band and synchronised 1.2 Mpx monochrome sensors
(Green, Red, Red Edge and Near Infrared)
•An calibrated camera thanks to the sunshine module
Sequoia also has:
•A sensor weighing 72 grams which is suitable for all types of drones1
•A removable protective lens cover
•Integrated GPS/GNSS to locate the camera when photos are being
taken
•64GB internal memory, corresponding to 10 flights
•An SD card slot

SEQUOIA PRESENTATION
Sequoia is a multispectral sensor specifically for farming. It is designed
according to three main criteria: outstanding precision, minimum size
and weight and ease of use. The Sequoia sensor is designed to be
suitable for all types of drones, those with fixed wings as well as multi-
rotors and mounted on gimbals or not. It can be used to take pictures
of agricultural fields in several spectral bands which measure the state
of the vegetation: Green (550nm wavelength, 40nm bandwidth), Red
(660nm wavelength, 40nm bandwidth), Red Edge (735nm wavelength,
10nm bandwidth) and Near Infrared (790nm wavelength, 40nm
bandwidth).
The photos taken can then be analysed using various software. They
can be used to make indexed maps (NDVI, NDRE, etc.) and make
recommendations regarding nitrogen fertilisation.
