1. Estimating Crop Leaf Area Index from Remotely Sensed Data: Scale Effects and Scaling MethodsLeaf area index (LAI) of crop canopies is significant for growth condition monitoring and crop yield estimation, and estimating LAI based on remote sensing observations is the normal way to assess regional crop growth. However, the scale effects of LAI make multi-scale observations harder to be fully and effectively utilized for LAI estimation. A systematical statistical strategy... Y. Dong , J. Wang , C. Li , G.

2. In-season Diagnosis of Rice Nitrogen Status Using an Active Canopy Sensor... Y. Yao, Y. Miao, S. Huang, M. Gnyp, R. Khosla, R. Jiang, G. Bareth |
3. A Clustering Approach For Management Zone Delineation In Precision AgricultureIn recent years, an increasing amount of research has been devoted to the delineation of management zones. There have been quite a number of approaches towards using small-scale data for subdividing the field into a small number of zones, usually three or four. However, these zones are usually static, often require multi-year data sets and are based on low-resolution sampling methods for data acquisition. Furthermore, existing research into the... G. Ru, M.

4. Developing An Active Crop Sensor-based In-season Nitrogen Management Strategy For Rice In Northeast ChinaCrop sensor-based in-season N management strategies have been successfully developed and evaluated for winter wheat around the world, but little has been reported for rice. The objective of this study was to develop an active crop sensor-based in-season N management strategy for upland rice in Northeast... Y. Yao, Y. Miao, S. Huang, M.L. Gnyp, R. Jiang, X. Chen, G.

5. Comparison Between High Resolution Spectral Indices and SPAD Meter Estimates of Nitrogen Deficiency in CornLow altitude remote sensing provides an ideal platform for monitoring time sensitive nitrogen status in crops. Research is needed however to understand the interaction between crop growth stage, spatial resolution and spectral indices derived from low altitude remote sensing. A TetraCam camera equipped with six bands including the red edge and near infrared (NIR) was used to investigate corn nitrogen dynamics. Remote sensing data were collected during the 2013 and 2014 growing seasons at four... D. Mulla, A. Laacouri, D. Kaiser |
6. Integrated Analysis of Multilayer Proximal Soil Sensing DataData revealing spatial soil heterogeneity can be obtained in an economically feasible manner using on-the-go proximal soil sensing (PSS) platforms. Gathered georeferenced measurements demonstrate changes related to physical and chemical soil attributes across an agricultural field. However, since many PSS measurements are affected by multiple soil properties to different degrees, it is important to assess soil heterogeneity using a multilayer approach. Thus, analysis of multiple layers of geospatial... V.I. Adamchuk, N. Dhawale, A. Biswas, S. Lauzon, P. Dutilleul |
7. Delineation of Site-Specific Nutrient Management Zones to Optimize Rice Production Using Proximal Soil Sensing and Multispectral ImagingEvaluating nutrient uptake and site-specific nutrient management zones in rice in Costa Rica from plant tissue and soil sampling is expensive because of the time and labor involved. In this project, a range of measurement techniques were implemented at different vintage points (soil, plant and UAVs) in order to generate and compare nutrient management information. More precisely, delineation of site-specific nutrient management zones were determined using 1) georeferenced soil/tissue... J.E. Villalobos, J.S. Perret, K. Abdalla, C.L. Fuentes, J.C. Rodriguez, W.

8. A Case Study Comparing Machine Learning and Vegetation Indices for Assessing Corn Nitrogen Status in an Agricultural Field in MinnesotaCompact hyperspectral sensors compatible with UAV platforms are becoming more readily available. These sensors provide reflectance in narrow spectral bands while covering a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum. However, because of the narrow spectral bands and wide spectral range, hyperspectral data analysis can benefit greatly from data mining and machine learning techniques to leverage its power. In this study, rainfed corn was grown during the 2017 growing season using four nitrogen treatments... A. Laacouri, T. Nigon, D. Mulla, C. Yang |
9. Predicted Nitrate-N Loads for Fall, Spring, and VRN Fertilizer Application in Southern MinnesotaNitrate-N from agricultural fields is a source of pollution to fresh and marine waters via subsurface tile drainage. Sensor-based technologies that allow for in-season monitoring of crop nitrogen requirements may represent a way to reduce nitrate-N loadings to surface waters by allowing for fertilizer application on a more precise spatial and temporal resolution. However, little research has been done to determine its effectiveness in reducing nitrate-N losses. In this study,... G.L. Wilson, D.J. Mulla, J. Galzki, A. Laacouri, J. Vetsch |
10. Yield Analysis in Sugarcane Harvesters Using Design of Experiments (DoE) MethodologyThe sugarcane crop is highlighted in national agribusiness, Brazil is the world’s largest producer of the plant, and the prospection of specialists is of strong growth for the next years. However, in order to increase productivity, technological interventions through of precision agriculture must be implemented. Among them, the management of inputs guided by yield spatial variability for otmizing production and income. This project approaches the implementation of the methodology of analysis... M.L.
