2. Multisensor Data Fusion Of Remotely Sensed Imagery For Crop Field MappingA wide variety of remote sensing data from airborne hyperspectral and multispectral images is available for site-specific management in agricultural application and production. Aerial imaging system may offer less expensive and high spatial resolution imagery with Near Infra-Red, Red, Green and Blue spectral wavebands. Hyperspectral sensor provides hundreds of spectral bands. Multisensor data fusion provides an effective paradigm for remote sensing applications by synthesizing... Y. Lan, H. Zhang, C. Yang, D. Martin, R. Lacey, Y. Huang, W.C. Hoffmann, P. Moulton |
3. Development Of A Decision Support System For Precision Areawide Pest Management In Cotton ProductionCrop models simulate growth and development, and provide relevant information for the routine management of the crop. The use of crop models on large areas for diagnosing crop growing conditions or predicting crop production is hampered by the lack of sufficient spatial information about model inputs. Integrating crop models with other information technologies such as geographic information systems (GIS), variable rate technology, remote sensing, and global positioning... Y. Lan, W.C. Hoffmann, J. Westbrook, M. Zaller |
4. Exploring Relationships Between Dairy Herd Improvement Metrics in Minas Gerais – Brazil Dairy HerdsThe objective of the present study was to apply principal component analysis (PCA) on Brazilian Dairy Herd Improvement (DHI) data to discover the subset of most meaningful variables to describe complete lactations. The Holstein Livestock Breeders Association of Minas Gerais provided data collected between 2005 and 2016 from 122 dairy farms located in the State of Minas Gerais – Brazil. Twelve numerical variables were selected from the original dataset and four additional variables were created.... G.M. Dallago, D. Figueiredo, R. Santos, P. Andrade, D. Santos |
5. Sensor Comparison for Yield Monitoring Systems of Small-Sized Potato HarvestersYield monitoring of potato in real time during harvesting would be useful for farmers, providing instant yield and income information. In the study, potentials of candidate sensors were evaluated with different yield measurement techniques for yield monitoring system of small-sized potato harvesters. Mass-based (i.e., load cell) and volume-based (i.e., CCD camera) sensors were selected and tested under laboratory conditions. For mass-based sensing, an impact plate instrumented with load cells...

6. Relationships Between First Test Day Metrics of First Lactation Cows to Evaluate Transition PeriodThe objective of this study was to apply principal component analysis (PCA) and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) on Dairy Herd Improvement (DHI) data of animals on their first lactation to discover the most meaningful set of variables that describe the outcome on the first test day. Data collected over 4 years were obtained from 13 dairy herds located in Québec – Canada. The data set was filtered to contain only information from first test day of animals on their first lactation,... G.M. Dallago, D. Figueiredo, R. Santos, P. Andrade, D.E. Santschi, R. Lacroix, D.M.

7. Effectiveness of UAV-Based Remote Sensing Techniques in Determining Lettuce Nitrogen and Water StressesThis paper presents the results of the investigation on the effectiveness of UAV-based remote sensing data in determining lettuce nitrogen and water stresses. Multispectral images of the experimental lettuce plot at Cal Poly Pomona’s Spadra farm were collected from a UAV. Different rows of the lettuce plot were subject to different level of water and nitrogen applications. The UAV data were used in the determination of various vegetation indices. Proximal sensors used for ground-truthing... S. Bhandari, A. Raheja, M.R. Chaichi, R.L. Green, D. Do, M. Ansari, J.G. Wolf, A. Espinas, F.H. Pham, T.M. Sherman |
