The ever-increasing spatial resolution offered by the newest generation of satellite sensors allow us to monitor agricultural production at the scale of an individual parcel and to quantitatively estimate or predict productivity.
This course will provide/present participants with
The most relevant data sources and data analysis techniques related to parcel-based crop monitoring and crop yield estimation.
Knowledge on the primary plant function “photosynthesis” with the aim to better understand the role of evaporation, plus various qualitative and quantitative means to assess how lack of evaporation may impede a crop’s ability to convert CO2 and H20 into carbohydrates.
Practical assignments to use FPAR and ETA to quantitatively assess crop production.
