Abstract Drones, also called Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), have witnessed a
remarkable development in recent decades. In agriculture, they have changed farming …

The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) sensors and platforms nowadays are being used in
almost every application (eg, agriculture, forestry, and mining) that needs observed …

Preharvest crop yield prediction is critical for grain policy making and food security. Early
estimation of yield at field or plot scale also contributes to high-throughput plant phenotyping …

Smart Farming is the new term in the agriculture sector, aiming to transform the traditional
techniques to innovative solutions based on Information Communication Technologies …

The current methods of phenotyping for breeding lines require a lot of time, labor and cost. In
recent years, unmanned aerial system (UAS) has paved the way for the development of field …

Change detection is a vibrant area of research in remote sensing. Thanks to increases in the
spatial resolution of remote sensing images, subtle changes at a finer geometrical scale can …

High-throughput phenotyping has been widely studied in plant science to monitor plant
growth and analyze the influence of genotypes and environment on plant growth. To meet …

When dealing with multiple growth stages, estimates of above-ground biomass (AGB) based
on optical vegetation indices (VIs) are difficult for two reasons:(i) optical VIs saturate at …

In this study we combined selected vegetation indices (VIs) and plant height information to
estimate biomass in a summer barley experiment. The VIs were calculated from ground …

Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) is presently in continuous development at a rapid pace.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or more extensively Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) …
