SAR satellite-based crop monitoring
1. SAR crop monitoring
1. SAR crop monitoring
AgriSAR results for Flevoland and Indian Head indicate: crop classification accuracies > 90% are possible for important major crops such as wheat, oilseed rape, sugar beet and potatoes.
1. SAR crop monitoring
Further detail is possible within classes e.g. wheat and rapeseed:
Different growth stages, different varieties, and crop damage
Example wheat radar map class
Example subclasses wheat condition radar map
