Plantix automatically analyses all photos you and your team members add to scouting notes and comments. To diagnose your crop, add a new scouting note and attach images. Adding notes is as easy as usual! Using Plantix doesn’t require any extra steps from you. If the issue is detected, you will see the icon and scientific name displayed on the image miniature.
You can diagnose your crops directly from your field! Use the SKYFLD APP to take photos and get immediate recognition results. |
You can start scouting note creation from the Scouting tab, field details, or vitality distribution graph.
1. To attach photos to your scouting note, click the icon. You can select images from your device.
2. Add the description, set the category and priority. You can also assign a note to your team members. Click Save.
3. After you save the note, you will be redirected to the note’s details view. Here you will find the AI diagnosis results.
4. Click to open the list of detected issues. Besides the pest / disease / nutrient deficiency name, we display information about the likelihood of correct recognition. There are 3 points on the scale:
- Very likely
- Likely
- Probable
Please keep in mind that recognition results highly depend on the resources of the Plantix database. If the likelihood category is Probable, you may consider consulting a crop advisor or agronomist before applying the proposed treatment.
5. To display a full description of symptoms and proposed treatment, click Learn more.
The popup opens where you can see:
- Common name
- Scientific name
- Pathogen class
- Reference image
- List of symptoms
- Symptoms description
- Proposed chemical treatment
6. You can set the recognition result as a note category. To do so, click Set as note category in the list of detected issues or in the full diagnosis description.
The popup opens, where you confirm your choice.
If there is no specific subcategory dedicated to the detected issue, SKYFLD will propose one of the general categories:
What if no issues are detected?
If your crops are healthy, you will see a green dot on the photo.
Please keep in mind that Plantix is not able to recognize all pests/diseases, especially if the photo shows only minimal symptoms! |
If Plantix could not recognise any issues, you will see a grey dot.
These are the possible reasons for the lack of results:
- The plant is healthy.
- The pest/disease is not in the Plantix database.
- We recognized some pests/diseases, but the likelihood is too low. We don’t want to mislead you.
- The photo quality, focus, or distance cause problems with recognition.
Pests & diseases recognition in comments
Plantix automatically analyzes all images you and your teammates attach to comments in scouting notes. If the issue is detected, you will see the icon and scientific name displayed on the image miniature. To access the full diagnosis, click the photo.
Next, click the bar below the image.
Recognitions from the comments are added to the list of all issues connected with a given scouting note. If you see the detected issues number, but displayed photos are marked as healthy / not recognised, it means that more images were added to the comments.
