A tree census, not a sample
Every canopy detected on the orthomosaic and reviewed on screen. You know how many trees there are per block, where they are and their canopy diameter.
Citrus · Hesperia platform
Every tree in your orchard, located and measured.
Citadelta brings to citrus the same method it proved in agave: drone flight, orthomosaic, detection of every canopy, and a tree inventory you compare flight after flight. With NDVI and NDRE vigor lenses to see which blocks need attention.

The platform in citrus
Your orchard, tree by tree
What we proved counting millions of agaves, applied to the orchard: a tree inventory that is measured, reviewed and compared from one flight to the next.
Vigor block by block
NDVI and NDRE lenses computed from the drone's multispectral bands over the whole orchard, to spot where vigor drops before it shows from the road.
Harvest and numbers per block
A harvest estimate per block from the trees counted and the age of the planting, calibrated with what you actually harvest; and a cost and income plan with yearly harvests to know when the orchard pays off.
Modules
What Hesperia does for your orchard today
Only what is already switched on and proven in real orchards. What comes next is announced when it is ready.
Tree inventory
Detection of every canopy on the drone orthomosaic, with canopy diameter per tree and assisted review to correct what the image does not show. A complete orchard census, not a sample.
Orchard map
Every orchard georeferenced on its orthomosaic, with NDVI and NDRE vigor lenses derived from the drone's multispectral bands, to see which blocks are doing well and which need attention.
Centralized inventory
Trees per orchard and block, with history per flight: how many there are, how much they have grown and which gaps appeared between one campaign and the next.
Costs and orders
Orders and costs per orchard and flight campaign, so each block's economics live next to its inventory.
Orchard design
Lay out a new orchard over satellite imagery: rows at the spacing you choose, roads and zones, with terrain, climate, soil suitability and a cost and income simulation with yearly harvests.
Estimated harvest
An estimate per block from the trees counted and the age of the planting, calibrated with the harvests you record. Every figure comes with its source and its margin of error.
Grower finances
A cost and income plan per orchard over the cycle, with yearly harvests, comparison against actual spending and NPV and IRR projection.
Spectral indices
An index calculator (NDVI, NDRE, SAVI and more) over the orthomosaics, to read crop vigor and stress precisely.
Flight planning
Polygon and flight route management, solar calculation and drone-exportable plans, with schedule and pilot assignment.
How it works
From the orchard to the dashboard in three steps
01
Flight
We plan and fly the orchard with a multispectral drone, or process your own flights. Ikkarus organizes polygons, pilots and schedule.
02
Orthomosaic and inventory
We build the orthomosaic and detect every canopy; the reviewer corrects on screen whatever the image leaves in shadow. Every correction improves the model.
03
Orchard on the dashboard
Trees per block, vigor lenses and per-campaign costs in one place, on the web and in Argos from the field.
Field apps
The platform, in the palm of your hand
Two native mobile apps take Citadelta to the field: one to consult your crop, one to run the drone flights that feed the data.
Argos · The one that sees everything
For growers and tequila houses · iOS + Android
Turns photogrammetry, plant counts and multispectral analysis into a field reference tool. Review your plots, their inventory and crop health, navigate to them and generate reports from your phone — even without signal.
- Map of geolocated plots by age and cycle
- Inventory per plot: count, diameter and fractions
- NDVI/NDRE vigor maps with a health traffic light
- Guided navigation to every plot
- Augmented reality: identify your plots with the camera
- PDF reports per plot, ready to share
- Works offline: download the map and keep working
Ikkarus · Flights, without friction
For the drone pilot team · Android · DJI controller
A native app for the flight team that replaces the DJI controller web app. Plan, assign and execute flight campaigns with Waze-style navigation — faster, built for the field and usable without signal.
- Polygons and flight assignment per pilot and campaign
- Schedule with solar window and wind and rain forecast
- Step-by-step 3D navigation to the plot
- Per-hectare commissions, calculated per pilot
- Envelopes: group adjacent plots into a single flight
- Offline map and data for ranches without coverage
- Optimized for the DJI controller and self-updating
Both apps sign in with your Citadelta account and share the same platform — field data and flight data always in sync.
