TORONTO, June 19, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Deveron UAS Corp. (CSE:DVR) (“Deveron” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that it has launched its drone data services in the US market. Deveron will be offering drone data services to its partners across the US mid-west, where there are some 127 million acres of farmland1.
With the recent integration of these services into Climate FieldView and John Deere data platforms (see press releases dated November 15, 2017 and May 2, 2018), the Company can now offer drone data services to a significant number of new customers. With this launch of its drone data network in the United States, the company looks forward to working with farmers that use such cutting-edge data platforms.
Leaders in agriculture continue to look for new ways to derive data analytics for their business. Drone data offers new applications for analytics and Goldman Sachs, sees drone applications evolving into a $100 billion market by 2020, with agriculture playing a significant role.
“We are excited to be launching our drone data services network to US customers,” commented Deveron’s President & CEO, David MacMillan. “The US represents a tremendous growth opportunity for Deveron as we continue to show farmers the value of drone data in improving their data insights on the farm. We will be working closely with our data integration customers and US farmers initially throughout the states of Indiana, Iowa, Illinois and North Dakota.”
