Evaluation of Orthomosics and Digital Surface Models Derived from Aerial Imagery for Crop Type Mapping
نویسندگان
چکیده
Orthomosics and digital surface models (DSM) derived from aerial imagery, acquired by consumer-grade cameras, have the potential for crop type mapping. In this study, a novel method was proposed for extracting the crop height from DSM and for evaluating the orthomosics and crop height for the identification of crop types (mainly corn, cotton, and sorghum). The crop height was extracted by subtracting the DSM derived during the crop growing season from that derived after the crops were harvested. Then, the crops were identified from four-band aerial imagery (blue, green, red, and near-infrared) and the crop height, using an object-based classification method and a maximum likelihood method. The results showed that the extracted crop height had a very high linear correlation with the field measured crop height, with an R-squared value of 0.98. For the object-based method, crops could be identified from the four-band airborne imagery and crop height, with an overall accuracy of 97.50% and a kappa coefficient of 0.95, which were 2.52% and 0.04 higher than those without crop height, respectively. When considering the maximum likelihood, crops could be mapped from the four-band airborne imagery and crop height with an overall accuracy of 78.52% and a kappa coefficient of 0.67, which were 2.63% and 0.04 higher than those without crop height, respectively.

Mapping the spatial distribution of soil taxonomic classes is important for useful and effective use of soil and management decisions. Digital soil mapping (DSM) may have advantages over conventional soil mapping approaches as it may better capture observed spatial variability and reduce the need to aggregate soil types. A key component of any DSM activity is the method used to define the relat...

There is a growing need to increase global crop yields, whilst minimising use of resources such as land, fertilisers and water. Agricultural researchers use ground-based observations to identify, select and develop crops with favourable genotypes and phenotypes; however, the ability to collect rapid, high quality and high volume phenotypic data in open fields is restricting this. This study dev...

Three dimensional (3D) mapping has been used widely in the spatial industry as a powerful technique for rendering artificial objects and their surrounding topography. However, an accurate and effective 3D modelling of complex features e.g. feature rich buildings and trees, is still challenging. The aim of this study is to develop an efficient framework to obtain a high-accuracy 3D model of urba...

Precision Farming (PF) management strategies are commonly based on estimations of within-field yield potential, often derived from remotely-sensed products, e.g., Vegetation Index (VI) maps. These well-established means, however, lack important information, like crop height. Combinations of VI-maps and detailed 3D Crop Surface Models (CSMs) enable advanced methods for crop yield prediction. Thi...
