This study presents a novel AI-driven solution designed to enhance sustainable resource management and increase accessibility for farmers through visualized and digitalized tree information. The proposed methodology includes optimizing drone mapping for effective data coverage, capturing high-resolution imagery, and generating a 3D Point Cloud, with a particular emphasis on the integration of Weighted K-means, Density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN), and cluster separation
