Gamaya is a Swiss company which provides drones equipped with hyper-spectral cameras for use in agriculture.[1][2]
The company has 35 employees and is located in Morges, Switzerland.[3] Igor Ivanov is the current company CEO.[4]
History
Gamaya was founded in 2015 as an EPFL laboratory spinoff by co-founders Dragos Constantin, Igor Ivanov and Yosef Akhtman.[5]
In 2016, the company raised an investment round of $3.2 million from the Sandoz Family Foundation, Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Seed4Equity, and VI Partners.[6]
In 2017, Gamaya received the Swiss Economic Forum Hightech award[7][8] as well as the Nvidia Inception award.[9]
In 2019, the company raised a second round of investment of CHF 12 million, led by Mahindra & Mahindra.[10][11]
Hyperspectral camera technology
Gamaya's hyperspectral camera technology was developed between 2013 and 2015 through the EPFL Leman-Baikal project.[12] It captures 40 different bands of light.[2] Hyperspectral images shot with a drone are then used to generate a survey of the land.[13] The data can be used for detecting invasive species and crop diseases, predicting yields, or for optimising soil treatment and fertilisation.[9]
Gamaya's cameras have been used in a few scientific studies as part of data collection for hyperspectral survey of agricultural crops.[14][15][16]
