Maitland, NSW uses drones to handle weed spraying along the Hunter River in Bolwarra
The council initially tested a drone outfitted with spraying equipment during a short-term pilot. An onboard GPS system allowed the drone to restrict spraying activities to target areas. The drone consumed less water and herbicide than traditional spraying operations. Drone flights also prevent detrimental health effects for council personnel and the spread of weeds by ground-level equipment.
