Multispectral Cameras for drones are closed source, expensive and include 5 cameras. Red, Green, Blue , infrared, and a fisheye First Person View (FPV) for navigation. An Open Source multispectral camera is needed.

For agriculture, 5 cameras are also used. But photosynthesis spectrum peaks at two frequencies: infrared (650nn) and blue (450nM). So only two cameras are needed for mapping photosynthesis. An open source agriculture-specific camera is needed. In this time of steadily worsening climate change causing rising food prices, we should be doing whatever we can to help global agriculture.

For fire fighting, one just needs three cameras: a fisheye RGB FPV camera for navigation and a rectilinear RGB camera paired with a rectilinear infrared camera for mapping.
