چکیده
Precision agriculture is defined as the observation, impact assessment, and the timely strategic response for remedy to minute variation in agricultural production [1]. Precision agriculture is applied in a wide range of agricultural activities such as crop production, dairy farming, horticulture, and forest management. Site-specific crop management (SSCM) is one important component of precision agriculture. The five main processes for a SSCM system are spatial referencing, crop and climate monitoring, attribute mapping, decision support system, and differential action. The process of potential management in crop production is better approached with the first step of data gathering at a spatial scale, i.e., spatial referencing of the crop field. Spatial referencing is performed with the use of geospatial technologies, such as remote sensing, geographic information system (GIS), and global positioning system (GPS).

Unsupervised Classification of High Resolution Satellite Imagery by Self-organizing Neural Network
The current paper discusses the importance of the modern high resolution satellite imagery. The acquired high amount of data must be processed by an efficient way, where the used Kohonen-type self-organizing map has been proven as a suitable tool. The paper gives an introduction to this interesting method. The tests have shown that the multispectral image information can be taken after a resamp...
متن کاملKohonen Self Organizing for Automatic Identification of Cartographic Objects
Automatic identification and localization of cartographic objects in aerial and satellite images have gained increasing attention in recent years in digital photogrammetry and remote sensing. Although the automatic extraction of man made objects in essence is still an unresolved issue, the man made objects can be extracted from aerial photos and satellite images. Recently, the high-resolution s...
متن کاملBlueberry Crop Growth Analysis Using Climatologic Factors and Multi-temporal Remotely Sensed Imagery
Blueberries are a type of vegetation with spectral signatures similar to that of forest and grass. Due to their size, they are difficult to distinguish when intermingled with tall grass. Blueberries are grown in the vicinity of evergreen forests to shield them from the wind and save them from freezing. It is also difficult to distinguish blueberries from forest by normal classification methods....

This study is a contribution to assess the high resolution digital aerial imagery for semi-automatic analysis of tree species identification. To maximize the benefit of such data, the object-based classification was conducted in a mixed forest plantation. Two subsets of an UltraCam D image were geometrically corrected using aero-triangulation method. Some appropriate transformations were perfor...
