Soils are essential for supporting food production and providing ecosystem services but are
under pressure due to population growth, higher food demand, and land use competition …

Computer vision is a field that involves making a machine “see”. This technology uses a
camera and computer instead of the human eye to identify, track and measure targets for …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a key variable to determine soil functioning, ecosystem
services, and global carbon cycles. Spectroscopy, particularly optical hyperspectral …

Towards the need for sustainable development, remote sensing (RS) techniques in the
Visible-Near Infrared–Shortwave Infrared (VNIR–SWIR, 400–2500 nm) region could assist …

Digital soil mapping (DSM) has been widely used as a cost-effective method for generating
soil maps. However, current DSM data representation rarely incorporates contextual …

Abstract Knowledge of the soil organic carbon (SOC) content is critical for environmental
sustainability and carbon neutrality. With the development of remote sensing data and …

There is a renewed awareness of the finite nature of the world's soil resources, growing
concern about soil security and significant uncertainties about the carrying capacity of the …

There is a worldwide need for detailed spatial information to support soil mapping, mainly in
the tropics, where main agricultural areas are concentrated. In this line, satellite images are …

Remote sensing (RS) techniques offer advantages over other methods for measuring soil
properties, including large-scale coverage, a non-destructive nature, temporal monitoring …

There is a need to update soil maps and monitor soil organic carbon (SOC) in the upper
horizons or plough layer for enabling decision support and land management, while …
