The document discusses a drone purchasing assistant created by Oveis Hassanijalilian that analyzes weather station and farm data to predict how many acres farmers will be unable to plant each year due to weather. By using the assistant's predictions to order drones 3 weeks in advance, a company can earn $70,000 per drone deployed. The assistant uses an AdaBoost classifier with decision trees trained on 10-fold cross validated weather and planting data from 2009-2018 to predict prevented planting acres with 84% average F1 score.
