Our Solution

DriftSense minimizes the loss of sprayed pesticides, and helps growers to save resources, maximize yields, and comply with relevant regulations. We prevent the corruption of crops. DriftSense makes sure that people in the fields and their vicinity, as well as the natural environment, remain safe. Our solutions are based on state-of-the-art technologies in analytical chemistry, meteorological and dispersion modeling science.

Integrating the above-mentioned unique inputs into our algorithmic models, can precisely locate their source, analyze their trajectories, and optimize the spraying application with a "tailor-made" approach.

The insights gained from our analyses would help growers make decisions based on science, rather than on "hunches".

Why Us?

Real-Time Data

We provide our customers with powerful insights, based by live data from our systems, 24/7, accessible from anywhere, including predictive analytics.

Technology

State-of-the-art, specialized integration of validated dispersion modeling, alongside ML algorithms.

Our chemists, agronomists, data scientists, and environmental policy experts, all work together to produce data which fits your needs.

About Us

DriftSense is a leading provider of innovate, cutting-edge technology for real-time and predictive analytics of pesticide airborne drift. We offer scientifically data-based insights of hazardous materials` drift found in the air.

We collect, model, and analyze their dispersion,

and locate their source and movement.

DriftSense was founded by three passionate Ph.D.`s who strive for a safer environment. Our team includes chemists, environmental policy experts, and data scientists. We are committed to work in close cooperation with our growers and end-users. We listen attentively to their needs, in order to create the best solution for each one of them.

Growers, food producers, regulatory bodies, chemicals/agriculture industries, planners and researchers can use our effective and accurate solutions, in their daily work. Together, we will help in preventing future drift from agricultural chemicals - making smarter decisions, while minimizing drift, maximizing yields, and saving your crops and the natural environment.
