Applications of Remote Image Capture System in Agriculture

Remote image capture systems are a key element in efficient and sustainable agriculture nowadays. They are increasingly being used to obtain information of interest from the crops the soil and the environment. It includes different types of capturing devices: from satellites and drones to in-field devices; different types of spectral information from visible RGB images to multispectral images; different types of applications; and different types of techniques in the areas of image processing computer vision pattern recognition and machine learning. This book covers all these aspects through a series of chapters that describe specific recent applications of these techniques in interesting problems of agricultural engineering.
