AI Powered Date Palm Monitoring & Analysis

AI Powered Date Palm Monitoring & Analysis

Delivered
Since 2025-05 till 2025-05

Project Overview

In collaboration with Tarmiz, Saiwa delivered and deployed the Hemaa.ai solution—our AI platform specifically tailored for date palm plantations. The Data‑Palm module caters to three main capabilities:

  1.Palm Tree Health Monitoring – Early detection of palm stress, nutritional deficiencies, or pest infestation using aerial imagery combined with deep learning analytics via the Hemaa.ai platform.

   2.Automated Tree Counting & Geolocation – High‑accuracy counting and mapping of individual trees across plantations using drone or satellite imagery processed through Hemaa.ai.

Key Features & Capabilities

Feature

Description

Multi-modal Data Inputs

Supports drone photography, high-resolution satellite imagery, and optional thermal or RGB sensors.

Advanced AI Models

Uses object detection networks like YOLO and EfficientDet for up to 99% detection accuracy and tree geolocation within ±2 m.

Proactive Health Alerts

Enables early-stage identification of Red Palm Weevil infestation and stress signs before they are visible.

Automated Tree Inventory

Efficiently catalogs thousands of date palms, providing spatial data and tree IDs for management.

Weed Cluster Mapping

Vendors precise weed maps to inform selective chemical application and minimize costs and environmental impact.

 

Workflow & Deliverables

  1. Data Capture – Imagery collected via drones or satellite over plantation fields.
  2. AI Analysis on Hemaa.ai – Algorithms process images to assess tree health, count palms, and detect weeds.
  3. GIS Mapping & Export – Georeferenced tree locations and anomaly zones visualized and exportable to GIS systems.
  4. Dashboard & Reporting – Insight dashboards for stakeholders to explore health alerts, weed zones, and inventory summaries.

 

Impact & Benefits

  • Highly Accurate Results – Achieves detection and counting precision above 95%, even under varying terrain and lighting conditions.
  • Early Pest Intervention – Significantly reduces damage by spotting infestations early and prompting timely treatments.
  • Operational Efficiency & Cost Savings – Automates labor-intensive field tasks, lowering deployment costs and reducing error.
  • Sustainability & Minimal Environmental Footprint – Weed detection minimizes pesticide usage by enabling selective treatment.

 

Roles & Collaboration

  • Tarmiz (Tarmeez Tech) – Provided domain expertise, conducted field integration, and led project implementation at client sites.
  • Saiwa – Managed overall project coordination, customized integration with client systems, and delivered end-user dashboards and reporting tools.
  • Hemaa.ai – The AI‑platform powering all above capabilities (health analytics, tree detection, weed mapping); serves as the solution’s technical backbone (not co‑partner).
