1. Timely, Objective, And Accurate Crop Area Estimations And Mapping Using Remote Sensing And Statistical Methods For The Province Of Prince Edward Island, CanadaThe provincial government of Prince Edward Island, Canada, required timely, objective, and accurate annual crop area statistics and mapping for 2006 to 2008. Consequently, Statistics Canada conducted a survey incorporating medium- resolution satellite imagery (10 to 30 m) and statistical survey methods. The objective was to produce crop area estimates with a coefficient of variation (CV) as a measure of accuracy, and to produce maps showing the distribution and location of different crops and... F.

2. Designing Variable-width Filter Strips Using GIS And Terrain AnalysisFilter strips are a widely-used practice for reducing the load of pollutants that leave agricultural fields in overland runoff. They are typically designed to intercept uniformly-distributed runoff with a constant width strip along a field margin. Non-uniform runoff flow, however, can reduce the effectiveness of a constant-width filter strip. Non-uniform flow is created by topographic undulations and swales in fields that concentrate runoff into certain locations... M.G. Dosskey, T.G. Mueller |
3. On The Go Soil Sensor For Soil Ec MappingThis paper describes spatial variation maps of soil electrical conductivity (EC) obtained by both spectroscopic and capacitance methods using on the go soil sensor ( a real-time soil sensor -RTSS) SAS 1000, commercialized by Shibuya Kogyo Co. The experiments were conducted over a 2 year period on an experimental Hokkaido farm with an alluvial soil type. The comparison in soil EC records between the spectroscopy and the capacitance were also discussed. The spectroscopic approach used the soil... N. Sulastri, S. Shibusawa, M. Kodaira |
4. Site-specific Management For Biomass Feedstock Production: Development Of Remote Sensing Data Acquisition SystemsEfficient biomass feedstock production supply chain spans from site-specific management of crops on field to the gate of biorefinery. Remote sensing data acquisition systems have been introduced for site-specific management, which is a part of the engineering solutions for biomass feedstock production. A stand alone tower remote sensing platform was developed to monitor energy crops using multispectral imagery. The sensing system was capable of collecting RGB and CIR images during the crop growing... T. Ahamed, L. Tian, Y. Zhang, Y. Xiong, B. Zhao, Y. Jiang, K. Ting |
5. Application Of Algebra Hyper-curve Neural Network In Soil Nutrient Spatial InterpolationStudy on spatial variability of soil nutrient is the basis of soil nutrient management in precision agriculture. For study on application potential and characteristics of algebra hyper-curve neural network(AHNN) in delineating soil properties spatial variability and interpolation, total 956 soil samples were taken for alkaline hydrolytic nitrogen measurement from a 50 hectares field using 20m*20m grid sampling. The test data set consisted of 100 random samples extracting... L. Chen, C. Zhao, W. Huang, T. Chen, J. Wang |
6. Spatial Mapping Of Penetrometer Resistance On Turfgrass Soils For Site-specific CultivationSite-specific management requires site-specific information. Soil compaction at field capacity is a major stress on recreational turfgrass sites that requires frequent cultivation. Spatial mapping of penetrometer... K. Rice, T. Carson, J. Krum, I.

7. Inversion Of Vertical Distribution Of Chlorophyll Concentration By Canopy Reflectance Spectrum In Winter WheatThe objective of this study was to investigate the inversion of foliage chlorophyll concentration(Chl) vertical-layer distribution by bidirectional reflectance difference function (BRDF) data, so as to provide guidance on the application of fertilizer. The ratio of transformed chlorophyll absorption reflectance index (TCARI) to optimized soil adjusted vegetation index (OSAVI) was named as canopy chlorophyll inversion index (CCII) in... W. Huang, C.
