Integrated narrow-band vegetation indices for prediction of crop chlorophyll content for application to precision agriculture
Recent studies have demonstrated the usefulness of optical indices from hyperspectral remote sensing in the assessment of vegetation biophysical variables both in forestry and agriculture. Those indices are, however, the combined response to variations of several vegetation and environmental properties, such as Leaf Area Index (LAI), leaf chlorophyll content, canopy shadows, and background soil...
متن کاملMethodologies and Uncertainties in the Use of the Terrestrial Chlorophyll Index for the Sentinel-3 Mission
A methodology is described for the validation of Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) Terrestrial Chlorophyll Index (MTCI) data over heterogeneous land surfaces in an agricultural region in Southern Italy. The approach involves the use inverse canopy reflectance modeling techniques to derive maps of canopy chlorophyll content (CCC) and leaf area index (LAI) at fine spatial resolution....
متن کاملGenetic Algorithm based Inversion Modelling of PROSAIL for Retrieval of Wheat Biophysical Parameters from Bi-directional Reflectance Data
Canopy reflectance model inversions are widely used for estimation of vegetation properties from remote sensing, but the inversion accuracy needs significant improvements. In recent years, applications of the genetic algorithms (GA) to a variety of optimization problems in remote sensing have been successfully demonstrated. The present study is focused on the GA based inversion approach of radi...
متن کاملTowards Red-edge Positions Less Sensitive to Canopy Biophysical Parameters Using Prospect-sailh Simulated Data
The position of the inflexion point in the red edge (680 nm to 780 nm), termed the red-edge position (REP) has been used as a measure to estimate foliar chlorophyll or nitrogen content. In this study, we assessed the utility of a new technique for extracting the REP, the linear extrapolation method recently proposed by Cho and Skidmore [Remote Sens. Environ. (in press)]. The assessment was base...
متن کاملEstimation of Leaf Area Index and Chlorophyll for a Mediterranean Grassland Using Hyperspectral Data
The study shows that leaf area index (LAI) and canopy chlorophyll content can be mapped in a heterogeneous Mediterranean grassland from canopy spectral reflectance measurements. Canopy spectral measurements were made in the field using a GER 3700 spectroradiometer, along with concomitant in situ measurements of LAI and chlorophyll content. We tested the utility of univariate techniques, involvi...
