Monitoring and Identification of Agricultural Crops through Multitemporal Analysis of Optical Images and Machine Learning Algorithms
The information about where crops are distributed is useful for agri-environmental assessments, but is chiefly important for food security and agricultural policy managers. The quickness with which this information becomes available, especially over large areas, is important for decision makers. Met...

description | The information about where crops are distributed is useful for agri-environmental assessments, but is chiefly important for food security and agricultural policy managers. The quickness with which this information becomes available, especially over large areas, is important for decision makers. Methodologies have been proposed for the study of crops. Most of them require field survey for ground truth data and a single crop map is generated for the whole season at the end of the crop cycle and for the next crop cycle a new field survey is necessary. Here, we present models for recognizing maize (Zea mays L.), beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) before the crop cycle ends without current-year field survey for ground truth data. The models were trained with an exhaustive field survey at plot level in a previous crop cycle. The field surveys begin since days before the emergence of crops to maturity. The algorithms used for classification were support vector machine (SVM) and bagged tree (BT), and the spectral information captured in the visible, red-edge, near infrared, and shortwave infrared regions bands of Sentinel 2 images was used. The models were validated within the next crop cycle each fifteen days before the mid-season. The overall accuracies range from 71.9% (38 days after the begin of cycle) to 87.5% (81 days after the begin cycle) and a kappa coefficient ranging from 0.53 at the beginning to 0.74 at mid-season |
