1. A method for controlling application of agrichemical products, comprising:
acquiring remotely sensed digital image data, comprising:
receiving a first set of data from a hotspot remote imagery subsystem;
generating a set of diagnostic instructions based on the first set of data; and
using the set of diagnostic instructions, remotely controlling a diagnostic scouting subsystem on a scouting mission to obtain a second set of data;
developing a prescription to apply at least one agrichemical product in a variable manner based on at least the digital image data, wherein the prescription describes a plurality of passes of a particular autonomous vehicle over a field to apply the at least one agrichemical product;
applying the at least one agrichemical product to a crop in the variable manner by the particular autonomous vehicle according to the prescription.
