MAPPING BARLEY LODGING WITH UAS MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY AND MACHINE LEARNING

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are demonstrated cost- and time-effective remote sensing platforms for precision agriculture applications and crop damage monitoring. In this study, lodging damage on barley crops has been mapped from UAS imagery that was acquired over multiple barley fields with exte...
