A Zhengzhou drone service team running crop-spraying and inspection jobs relied on manual weather checks — wind speed, precipitation, and visibility judged by experience. Last-minute cancellations caused real losses.
Built on ThinkPHP 8, scheduled tasks aggregate multiple weather data sources and compute a flyability index per operation site. Threshold breaches trigger alerts via WeChat official-account template messages; a Vue console manages sites and thresholds.
The team now checks the system before each workday instead of guessing the sky. Weather misjudgment — and the wasted trips and cancellations it caused — dropped significantly, making job scheduling far more relaxed.
