Database - Weed Identification and Liquid Herbicide application by Agricultural Drone in Tasmania, Australia

**1. Objective:** The primary objective of this project is to comprehensively identify all known weed types in Tasmania, Australia. Additionally, the scope includes determining the most effective time of year for applying liquid herbicides, specifying the appropriate herbicides for each weed type, establishing the recommended dosage for application, and mapping the distribution of these weeds across different regions of Tasmania refer ([login to view URL]) **2. Weed Identification:** a. Conduct a thorough survey and documentation of all weed species present in Tasmania. b. Utilize botanical experts and taxonomists to accurately identify each weed type. c. Develop a comprehensive database detailing the characteristics, growth habits, and ecological impact of each identified weed. **3. Best Time of Year for Herbicide Application:** a. Analyze climate data and environmental factors to determine the optimal time for herbicide application for each weed type. b. Provide a monthly schedule outlining the recommended periods for herbicide application based on weed species. **4. Herbicide Selection and Dosage:** a. Identify the most effective herbicides for each weed type. b. Specify the recommended dosage for herbicide application based on the growth stage and characteristics of the targeted weed. c. Ensure that the selected herbicides comply with environmental regulations and safety standards. **5. Geographic Distribution:** a. Conduct spatial analysis to determine the geographical distribution of identified weed species. b. Create maps highlighting the prevalence of each weed type in different regions of Tasmania. c. Provide a detailed report on the factors influencing weed distribution, such as soil types, climate variations, and human activities. **6. Reporting and Documentation:** a. Generate a comprehensive report summarizing the findings of the weed identification process. b. Create detailed guidelines for herbicide application, including recommended herbicides, dosage, and timing for each weed type. c. Present maps and visual aids illustrating the geographic distribution of identified weeds in Tasmania. **7. Reporting and Documentation: ** a. Provide detailed documentation on the selection and application of herbicides, including dosage recommendations. **8. Presentation: ** a. Present the data and findings in the form of a database in Xcel format with individual tabs for each weed outlining the associated considerations mentioned throughout this scoping document. **Remember it is important to view this project as the development of a database.
