The concept proposed here describes about the design, construction and validation of a mobile sensory platform for crop monitoring, disaster management. In the field of agriculture, the focus is on the applications of fertilizers and pesticides which is the prime importance for crop yields. The use of drones or unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) makes it easy because of the speed and effectiveness in spraying operations. They are durable than conventional helicopters and easy to construct thus reducing the potential damage and are mainly used for surveillance of various applications in many fields such as crop monitoring and management in the agricultural fields which are helpful in farm production thus reducing the work of farmers and in disaster management where in case fire emergencies can be detected and monitored without getting close to the affected area.
