MicaSense RedEdge-P Blue Multispectral Kit: coastal multispectral intelligence with expandable band architecture

The MicaSense RedEdge-P Blue Multispectral Kit is purpose-built for enterprise users performing precision agriculture, environmental monitoring, and water-focused aerial surveys. As a standalone system, it captures five multispectral bands optimized for coastal and aquatic analysis using synchronized global-shutter sensors and radiometric calibration. Its ocean blue wavelength enables enhanced visibility in shallow water environments and improved vegetation stress detection.

Built on the modular RedEdge-P platform, the RedEdge-P Blue also supports expansion into dual and triple sensor configurations, allowing teams to increase spectral coverage while maintaining consistent data quality and operational workflows.

Coastal-optimized multispectral system and expansion features

• Standalone coastal blue multispectral sensor for water and vegetation analysis
• Ocean blue band enhances shallow water and aquatic environment monitoring
• Global shutter sensors eliminate motion distortion during survey flights
• Radiometric calibration supports repeatable quantitative data collection
• Modular architecture supports expansion into dual sensor configurations
• Dual systems allow selection of up to ten multispectral bands
• Expandable into RedEdge-P Triple configuration with fifteen bands
• Synchronized multi-sensor capture preserves temporal and spatial alignment

Reliable spatial resolution for analytical workflows

The RedEdge-P Blue captures multispectral imagery at 1456 × 1088 pixels per band, paired with a 2464 × 2056 pixel panchromatic sensor and a 5.1 MP RGB output aligned across all bands. At 120 m (≈400 ft) AGL, the system delivers a ground sample distance of 7.7 cm (3 in) per multispectral band and 3.98 cm (1.5 in) for the panchromatic band. With pan-sharpening applied during post-processing, spatial resolution can reach 2 cm (0.8 in) per pixel. Global shutter architecture ensures distortion-free imagery during motion-intensive missions.

Scalable spectral coverage from single to triple configurations

The RedEdge-P Blue Multispectral Kit is designed to scale with operational requirements. Used independently, it provides coastal-optimized multispectral data for water and vegetation analysis. When paired with a RedEdge-P or RedEdge-P Green sensor, the system forms a dual configuration supporting up to ten selectable bands from a fifteen-band ecosystem.

When combined with both RedEdge-P and RedEdge-P Green sensors, it becomes part of the RedEdge-P Triple configuration, enabling synchronized capture of all fifteen multispectral bands for advanced pigment analysis, stress detection, and research-grade spectral differentiation.
