Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicle-based systems and methods for agricultural landscape modeling are disclosed herein. An example unmanned aerial vehicle includes a communicator to receive an instruction to request the unmanned aerial vehicle to fly over an area of interest. The instruction is from a vehicle in the area of interest. The unmanned aerial vehicle is to fly over the area of interest. The example unmanned aerial vehicle includes a camera to generate image data for the area of interest. The example unmanned aerial vehicle includes a data generator to generate a vegetation landscape model of the area of interest based on the image data. The communicator is to communicate the vegetation landscape model to the vehicle.
