MicaSense RedEdge
MicaSense RedEdge Multispectral Camera

The MicaSense RedEdge is an airborne multispectral camera manufactured by MicaSense, Inc. It operates across five bands (460-860 nm) in the red, green, blue, near-infrared, and red-edge light spectrum to collect visible and infrared imagery. It is typically used on uncrewed aerial systems (UASs) for vegetation mapping. The MicaSense RedEdge had a ground sample distance of 8.2 cm per pixel (per band) at 120 m above ground level. It captures imagery in 1-second recording intervals and has a field of view of 47.9 by 36.9 degrees.
