Introduction Crops monitoring on large-scale farm is a complex and time-consuming exercise, particularly in warm arid conditions where crops can change drastically in 24 hours. Reducing scouting time is of great importance while providing maps for large areas within hours would be the ultimate goal. With multi-spectral sensors, biomass is monitored accurately helping the… read more »
Introduction Rapid and reliable estimates of leaf area index (LAI) are important for studies of exchanges of energy and gases in the biosphere-atmosphere continuum. In this case evaluated the field performance of SunScan canopy analysis system for rapid estimation of LAI. Direct and indirect measurements of LAI were made in a maize (Zea mays L.)… read more »

Introduction In the future European farmers will have to effectively manage information on and off their farms to improve economic viability and to reduce environmental impact. All three levels, in which agricultural activities need to be harmonized with economical and environmental constraints, require integrated ICT adoption: improvement of farm efficiency; integration of public goods… read more »

Introduction An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a “drone” is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. The flight of UAVs may be controlled either autonomously by on-board computers or remote control pilot on the ground from distance. Agriculture is one of the main sectors that drones have find numerous uses and have… read more »
Introduction A data logger is an electronic device that records measurements at set intervals over a period of time. Data loggers are typically compact, battery-powered devices equipped with an internal microprocessor, data storage, and one or more sensors. They can be deployed indoors, outdoors, and underwater, and can record data for up to months at… read more »
