1. Remote Sensing of Nitrogen and Water Status on Boston Lettuce Transplants in a Greenhouse EnvironmentRemote sensing is the stand-off collection through the use of a variety of devices for gathering information on a given object or area. Applied as a warning tool in plant stock production, it is expected to help in the achievement of better, more uniform and more productive organic cropping systems. Remote sensing of vegetation targets can be achieved from the... N. Tremblay, P. Vigneault, M.Y. Bouroubi, M. Dorais, G.P. Gianquinto, M. Tempesta |
2. A Comparison Of Performance Between UAV And Satellite Imagery For N Status Assessment In CornA number of platforms are available for the sensing of crop conditions. They vary from proximal (tractor-mounted) to satellites orbiting the Earth. A lot of interest has recently emerged from the access to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones that are able to carry sensors payloads providing data at very high spatial resolution. This study aims at comparing the performance of a UAV and satellite imagery acquired over a corn nitrogen response trial set-up. The nitrogen (N) response... P. Vigneault, N. Tremblay, M.Y.

3. Comparative Benefits of Drone Imagery for Nitrogen Status Determination in CornRemotely sensed vegetation data provide an effective means of measuring the spatial variability of nitrogen and therefore of managing applications by taking intrafield variations into account. Satellites, drones and sensors mounted on agricultural machinery are all technologies that can be used for this purpose. Although a drone (or unmanned aerial vehicle [UAV]) can produce very high-resolution images, the comparative advantages of this type of imagery have not been demonstrated. The goal of... N.

4. Pest Detection on UAV Imagery Using a Deep Convolutional Neural NetworkPresently, precision agriculture uses remote sensing for the mapping of crop biophysical parameters with vegetation indices in order to detect problematic areas, and then send a human specialist for a targeted field investigation. The same principle is applied for the use of UAVs in precision agriculture, but with finer spatial resolutions. Vegetation mapping with UAVs requires the mosaicking of several images, which results in significant geometric and radiometric problems. Furthermore, even... Y. Bouroubi, P. Bugnet, T.

5. Estimating Corn Biomass from RGB Images Acquired with an Unmanned Aerial VehicleAbove-ground biomass, along with chlorophyll content and leaf area index (LAI), is a key biophysical parameter for crop monitoring. Being able to estimate biomass variations within a field is critical to the deployment of precision farming approaches such as variable nitrogen applications. With unprecedented flexibility, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) allow image acquisition at very high spatial resolution and short revisit time. Accordingly, there has been an increasing interest in... K. Khun, P. Vigneault, E. Fallon, N. Tremblay, C. Codjia, F. Cavayas |
