Introducing High-Resolution Satellite Imaging in Phytech
Field issues rarely announce themselves clearly.
By the time irrigation irregularities, leaks, or uneven crop development are visible from the ground, yield or quality may already be affected. Walking the field shows symptoms. Satellite imaging shows patterns.
From Detection to Action
“Early detection changes everything,” says Tal Shilo, Product Manager at Phytech. “When growers can see variability within blocks at 10x10 ft resolution and track changes every other day, they gain time. And in agriculture, time is risk reduction.”
She adds: “What separates Phytech is that this imagery isn’t sitting in isolation. It’s part of a single platform that connects plant data, irrigation performance, and satellite insights. That’s what gives growers real confidence.”
From the field side, the impact is immediate.
“Many of our growers tell us the biggest value is knowing where to look before they walk the field,” says Customer Success Manager Yigal Goldman at .“They’re not reacting to visible damage — they’re responding to early signals.”
That’s why Phytech now offers High-Resolution Satellite Imaging — near-daily, ~10x10 ft resolution imagery powered by Planet satellites, fully integrated into the Phytech platform.
More images. Higher resolution. Lower cost. Real peace of mind in One Platform.
Why Frequency and Resolution Matter
Standard satellite imagery updates weekly. In fast-moving growing conditions, that can mean missing the early window for correction.
With near-daily updates and ~10x10 ft resolution, growers can:
Detect over- or under-irrigation earlier
Identify pressure issues and leaks
Monitor canopy wetness and nitrogen variability
Track variability within blocks, not just between them
Analyze trends across multiple seasons
Real-Life Examples
Spotting a trend developing
Yigal Goldman: "A relatively large section of the orchard did not receive water due to a blockage in the irrigation line. The progression of the damage can be seen developing over the course of the season?"
Avocado: Detecting Irrigation Non-Uniformity
"Avocado is highly sensitive to excess water. Using Wetness maps to identify non-uniformity in the orchard – resolved after replacing the irrigation piping", says Goldman.
Avocado: Trend analysis over the course of a month
Goldman: "Avocado is sensitive to excess water, so it is important to monitor wetness levels to ensure that increasing irrigation toward the start of summer does not lead to overwatering damage."
Avocado: Absolute VS. Relative helps reveal the truth
"Here, An orchard with the Hass variety located in the lower part of the field. From the grower’s perspective, all Hass trees were receiving the same treatment. An insight that emerged from the imagery: the three small southern plots showed lower vegetative growth compared to the rest of the field.
Vineyard: Absolute VS. Relative helps reveal the truth
The area outlined in red shows a section of the block with lower NDVI levels.
During the season, this area was treated as a separate sub-plot.
There is a correlation between NDVI levels and early or late ripening. Therefore, to improve wine quality from this block, this section can be harvested separately from the rest of the area.
What Separates Phytech
High-Resolution Satellite Imaging is not a standalone dashboard.
It is fully integrated into the Phytech platform — alongside irrigation data, plant monitoring, and operational monitoring and automation — all in one place.
What makes it different:
Higher frequency – near-daily updates
10x10 ft Planet resolution – see variability within blocks
Multiple actionable layers – vegetation, wetness, nitrogen, anomaly detection
One platform – no switching tools, no disconnected systems
This integration means growers don’t just see anomalies. They connect them directly to irrigation decisions.
Designed for Commercial Growers at Scale
This offering is built for medium to large orchard and row crop operations managing irrigation across multiple blocks.
With special pricing currently available, growers can now access near-daily high-resolution satellite imagery at a lower cost — making advanced visibility more accessible than ever.
More images. Higher resolution. Lower cost. Fewer surprises.
In Geometry Dash Lite, every second is filled with action. The cube runs through glowing levels at a constant speed. Obstacles appear in rapid patterns. Players must rely on quick reflexes. The soundtrack guides your timing naturally. Jump pads and rings create dynamic movement. Gravity portals reverse your direction instantly. Success depends on consistency.
I really appreciate this post! The emphasis on high-resolution images making a difference in risk management is spot-on. I had a similar experience when using detailed visuals for a level devil project; it definitely helped us make better decisions. Thanks for sharing such valuable insights!
This is a great example of how technology can shift farming from reactive to proactive—having near-daily imagery at that resolution could really help sprunki growers catch irrigation or crop health issues before they turn into costly problems.
dashmetry uses a progressive difficulty system that gradually introduces new mechanics. Early levels teach players the basics—movement, dash timing, and obstacle avoidance.
I like Friday Night Funkin for its personality, where quirky humor and expressive foes make each battle feel distinct and entertaining.
