1. Evaluation of Image Acquisition Parameters and Data Extraction Methods on Plant Height Estimation with UAS ImageryAerial imagery from unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) has been increasingly used for field phenotyping and precision agriculture. Plant height is one important crop growth parameter that has been estimated from 3D point clouds and digital surface models (DSMs) derived from UAS-based aerial imagery. However, many factors can affect the accuracy of aerial plant height estimation. This study examined the effects of image overlap, pixel resolution, and data extraction methods on estimation... C.

2. Influence of Ground Control Points and Processing Parameters on UAS Image Mosaicking for Plant Height EstimationDigital surface models (DSMs) and 3D point clouds, generated using overlapping images from unmanned aircraft systems (UASs), are often used for plant height estimation in phenotyping and precision agriculture. This study examined the effects of the quantity and placement of ground control points (GCPs) and image processing parameters on the creation of DSMs and 3D point clouds for plant height estimation. A 2-ha field containing multiple experimental plots with four crops (corn, cotton, sorghum,... C. Yang, H. Zhao, W. Guo, J. Zhang, C. Suh, B.K. Fritz |
3. Precision Irrigation Strategies for Climate-resilient Crop Production and Water Resource ManagementDeficit irrigation management practices that best optimize the use of limited water resources without impacting crop yield are necessary to ensure the sustainability of agricultural production. This is particularly crucial in regions characterized by semi-arid climate, like Western Kansas, where the challenge of depleting water resources is worsened by the occurrence of extreme climate conditions. Therefore, a data-driven irrigation management strategy such as one developed based on crop evapotranspiration... K.E. Igwe, I. Onyekwelu, V. Sharda |
