1. Improvement of the Quality of “On-The-Go” Recorded Soil pHAn important basis for lime fertilisation is the recording of pH values. Many studies have shown that the pH value can vary greatly within a small area. Only through the development of a sensor by VERIS has it become possible to determine the pH value cheaply in a much higher sampling density than with the time and cost intensive laboratory method. With respect to their measurement principles, both methods differ fundamentally in that in the laboratory method an extraction medium is used. This... M. Schneider, T. Leithold, P. Wagner |
2. Investigation Of Crop Varieties At Different Growth Stages Using Optical Sensor DataCotton, soybean and sorghum are economically important crops in Texas. Knowing the growing status of crops at different stages of growth is crucial to apply site-specific management and increase crop yield for farmers. Field experiments were initiated to measure cotton, soybean and sorghum plants growth status and spatial variability through the whole growing cycle. A ground-based active optical sensor, Greenseeker®, was used to collect the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data... H. Zhang, Y. Lan, J. Westbrook, C. Suh, C. Hoffmann, R. Lacey |
3. Economics Of Site Specific Liming - Comparison Of On-The-Go And Grid-Based Soil Sampling To Determine The Soil pHAn important base for adequate liming is the recording of the soil pH. Several studies indicated a large heterogeneity of soil pH within fields. Recently technological improvements facilitate an on-the-go determination of the soil pH in a much higher sampling density compared to the conventional, time consuming and costly laboratory method. The “Veris soil pH sensor” allows georeferenced on-the-go mapping of the soil pH. But the “Veris soil pH sensor” and... T. Leithold, P. Wagner |
4. Evaluation of Image Acquisition Parameters and Data Extraction Methods on Plant Height Estimation with UAS ImageryAerial imagery from unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) has been increasingly used for field phenotyping and precision agriculture. Plant height is one important crop growth parameter that has been estimated from 3D point clouds and digital surface models (DSMs) derived from UAS-based aerial imagery. However, many factors can affect the accuracy of aerial plant height estimation. This study examined the effects of image overlap, pixel resolution, and data extraction methods on estimation... C.

5. Influence of Ground Control Points and Processing Parameters on UAS Image Mosaicking for Plant Height EstimationDigital surface models (DSMs) and 3D point clouds, generated using overlapping images from unmanned aircraft systems (UASs), are often used for plant height estimation in phenotyping and precision agriculture. This study examined the effects of the quantity and placement of ground control points (GCPs) and image processing parameters on the creation of DSMs and 3D point clouds for plant height estimation. A 2-ha field containing multiple experimental plots with four crops (corn, cotton, sorghum,... C. Yang, H. Zhao, W. Guo, J. Zhang, C. Suh, B.K. Fritz |
