Monitoring of crop fields using multispectral and thermal imagery from UAV

Monitoring of crop fields using multispectral and thermal imagery from UAV In the following paper, an application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for agricultural purposes will be presented. The field of interest to be monitored is situated in the Western part of the Czech Republic. It is located in the area of the Vysoké Sedliště village, close to the city of Planá. There are two main crops cultivated in the area – corn and barley. The surrounding territory is mostly covered with grass. The research team carried out numerous unmanned flights with a fixed-wing platform with two different sensors – multispectral and thermal. Three vegetation indices were computed. Moreover, two thermal maps are presented to indicate the relation between vegetation and soil temperature. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png European Journal of Remote Sensing Taylor & Francis

Abstract

In the following paper, an application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for agricultural purposes will be presented. The field of interest to be monitored is situated in the Western part of the Czech Republic. It is located in the area of the Vysoké Sedliště village, close to the city of Planá. There are two main crops cultivated in the area – corn and barley. The surrounding territory is mostly covered with grass. The research team carried out numerous unmanned flights with a fixed-wing platform with two different sensors – multispectral and thermal. Three vegetation indices were computed. Moreover, two thermal maps are presented to indicate the relation between vegetation and soil temperature.
