MicaSense Altum-PT Multispectral Sensor Kit
Ultra-High-Resolution Multispectral, Thermal & Panchromatic Imaging – All in One
The Altum-PT is MicaSense’s most powerful 3-in-1 remote sensing solution, purpose-built for advanced agricultural research, precision farming, and scientific analysis. It combines an ultra-high-resolution panchromatic camera, a next-generation thermal sensor (with 2× the ground resolution of the original Altum), and five discrete multispectral bands—all perfectly synchronized for pixel-aligned outputs at stunning clarity.
Designed for plant-level analytics, early-stage stand counting, and irrigation insights, the Altum-PT enables high-frequency data capture with a global shutter, open API integration, and onboard storage capable of up to 2 captures per second.

🌿 Applications & Use Cases
Irrigation Scheduling
Leverage thermal data to determine optimal watering times, frequency, and duration. Altum-PT detects irrigation inconsistencies and helps identify leaks or clogs by comparing crop canopy and soil temperatures.
Fruit Yield Estimation
Replace costly and time-consuming manual methods with algorithm-driven fruit counts using high-res RGB, multispectral, and thermal data to predict yield faster and more accurately.
Early Disease, Pest & Nutrient Detection
Catch problems before they become visible with pan-sharpened multispectral imaging. Track subtle changes in plant physiology for early signs of disease, pest infestation, or nutrient deficiencies.
Water Stress Detection
Monitor canopy temperature to identify plants experiencing stress. Altum-PT provides the precision needed to detect microclimate-level water deficiencies early.
Plant Phenotyping
Accelerate research with high-volume, detailed plant trait data collection. Analyze growth patterns, responses to treatments, and genetic variability quickly and efficiently.
Irrigation Clog & Pressure Issue Detection
Use thermal imagery to locate irrigation system failures. Cooler zones indicate excess water, while hotter dry zones pinpoint clogged or non-functioning emitters.
