Remote attribute monitoring during an agricultural operation based on priority

A computer implemented method comprising:

• identifying a plurality of attributes to be detected;
• identifying a plurality of monitoring locations at a worksite, wherein each respective monitoring location, of the plurality of monitoring locations, is associated with a respective one or more attributes of the plurality of attributes;
• identifying a monitoring priority, the monitoring priority identifying a priority of each attribute, of the plurality of attributes, relative to one or more other attributes of the plurality of attributes;
• identifying a monitoring sequence based, at least, on the monitoring priority and the respective one or more attributes associated with each respective monitoring location, wherein the monitoring sequence instructs an order in which a drone is to travel to each monitoring location of the plurality of monitoring locations;
• generating, based, at least, on the monitoring sequence, a travel plan for the drone, the travel plan instructing travel of the drone at the worksite;
• and
• controlling the drone based on the travel plan to travel at the worksite to detect, with a sensor system disposed on the drone, the plurality of attributes and generate sensor data indicative of the plurality of attributes.

An agricultural system comprising:

• a sensor system disposed on a drone communicably coupled to and remotely positionable from an agricultural work machine at a worksite, the sensor system configured to detect a plurality of attributes at the worksite;
• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing instructions, executable by the one or more processors, that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• identify a plurality of monitoring locations at the worksite, wherein each respective monitoring location, of the plurality of monitoring locations, is associated with a respective one or more attributes of the plurality of attributes;
• identify a monitoring priority, the monitoring priority identifying a priority of each attribute of the plurality of attributes, relative to one or more other attributes of the plurality of attributes;
• generate, based, at least, on the monitoring priority and the respective one or more attributes associated with each respective monitoring location, a travel plan for the drone, the travel plan instructing travel of the drone at the worksite and including one or more monitoring locations and a monitoring sequence, wherein each monitoring location of the one or more monitoring locations is associated with a respective set of the plurality of attributes and wherein the monitoring sequence instructs an order in which the drone is to travel to each of the one or more monitoring locations;
• and
• control the drone based on the travel plan to travel at the worksite to detect, with the sensor system, the plurality of attributes to be detected and generate sensor data indicative of the plurality of attributes.
