1. Ground Level Hyperspectral Imagery For Weeds Detection In Wheat FieldsWeeds are a severe pest in agriculture resulting in extensive yield loss. Applying precise weed control has economical as well as environmental benefits. Combining remote sensing tools and techniques with the concept of precision agriculture has the potential to automatically locate and identify weeds in order to allow precise control. The objective of the current work is to detect annual... D.J. Bonfil, U. Shapira, A. Karnieli, I. Herrmann, S. Kinast |
2. Multi, Super Or Hyper Spectral Data, The Right Way From Research Toward Application In AgricultureRemote sensing provides opportunities for diverse applications in agriculture. One consideration of maximizing the utility of these applications, is the need to choose the most efficient spectral resolution. Picking the optimal spectral resolutions (multi, super or hyper) for a specific application is also influenced by other factors (e.g., spatial and temporal resolutions) of the utilized device. This work focuses mainly on... D.J. Bonfil, I. Herrmann, A. Pimstein, A. Karnieli |
3. Weeds Detection By Ground-level Hyperspectral ImagingWeeds are a severe pest in agriculture, causing extensive yield loss. Weed control of grass and broadleaf weeds is commonly performed by applying selective herbicides homogeneously all over the field. As presented in several studies, applying the herbicide only where needed has economical as well as environmental benefits. Combining remote sensing tools and techniques with the concept of precision agriculture has the potential to automatically... U. Shapira , I. Herrmann, A. Karnieli, D.J. Bonfil |
4. Assessment Of Field Crops Leaf Area Index By The Red-edge Inflection Point Derived From Venus BandsThe red-edge region of leaves spectrum (700-800 nm) corresponds to the spectral region that connects the chlorophyll absorption in the red and the amplified reflectance caused by the leaf structure in the near infrared (NIR) parts of the spectrum. At the canopy level, the inflection point of the red-edge slope is influenced by the plant’s condition that is related to several properties, including Leaf Area Index (LAI) and plant nutritional status....

5. Modeling Soil Carbon Spatial Variation: Case Study In The Palouse RegionSoil organic carbon (Cs) levels in the soil profile reflect the transient state or equilibrium conditions determined by organic carbon inputs and outputs. In areas with strong topography, erosion, transport and deposition control de soil carbon balance and determine strong within-field differences in soil carbon. Carbon gains or losses are therefore difficult to predict for the average field. Total Cs ranged from 54 to 272 Mg C ha-1, with 42% (range 25 to 78%) of Cs in the top 0.3-m of the soil... A.R.

6. Investigating Profile And Landscape Scale Variability In Soil Organic Carbon: Implications For Process-oriented Precision ManagementMitigation of rising greenhouse gases concentrations in the atmosphere has focused attention on agricultural soil organic C (SOC) sequestration. However, field scale knowledge of the processes and factors regulating SOC dynamics, distribution and variability is lacking. The objectives of this study are to characterize the profile... D.R.

7. Precision Conservation: Site-specific Trade-offs Of Harvesting Wheat Residues For Biofuel FeedstocksCrop residues are considered to be an important lignocellulosic feedstock for future biofuel production. Harvesting crop residues, however, could lead to serious soil degradation and loss of productivity. Our objective was to evaluate trade-offs associated with harvesting residues including impacts on soil quality, soil organic C and nutrient removal. We used cropping systems data collected at 369 geo-referenced points on the 37-ha Washington State... D.R. Huggins, |
8. Exploring Tractor Mounted Hyperspectral System Ability to Detect Sudden Death Syndrome Infection and Assess Yield in SoybeanPre-visual detection of crop disease is critical for both food and economic security. The sudden death syndrome (SDS) in soybeans, caused by Fusarium virguliforme (Fv), induces 100 million US$ crop loss, per year, in the US alone. Field-based spectroscopic remote sensing offers a method to enable timely detection, but still requires appropriate instrumentation and testing. Soybean plants were measured at canopy level over a course of a growing season to assess the capacity of spectral measurements... I. Herrmann, S. Vosberg, P. Ravindran, A. Singh, P. Townsend, S.

9. Comparing Hyperspectral and Thermal UAV-borne Imagery for Relative Water Content Estimation in Field-grown SesameSesame (Sesamum indicum) is an irrigated oilseed crop, and studies on its water content estimation are sparred. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-borne imageries using spectral reflectance as well as thermal emittance for crops are an ample source of high throughput information about their physiological and chemical traits. Though several studies have dealt with thermal emittance to assess the crop water content, evaluating its relation to the plant’s solar reflectance is limitedly... M. Sahoo, R. Tarshish, V.
