Abstract
In the present research, the presence of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) on the surface of the San Jose Dam located in the city of San Luis Potosi, S.L.P, Mexico, was monitored and mapped. The monitoring was conducted for 2 years (2018-2020) with remote sensing data from OLI Landsat 8 sensors, based on the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). The results demonstrated the capability and accuracy of this method, where it was observed that the aboveground cover area, proliferation, and distribution of water hyacinth are influenced by climatic and anthropogenic factors during the four seasons of the year. As part of a sustainable environmental control of this invasive species, the use of water hyacinth (WH) root (RO), stem (ST), and leaf (LE) components as adsorbent material for Pb(II) present in aqueous solution was proposed. The maximum adsorption capacity was observed at pH 5 and 25 °C and was 107.3, 136.8, and 120.8 mg g-1 for RO, ST, and LE, respectively. The physicochemical characterization of WH consisted of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), N2 physisorption, infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), charge distribution, and zero charge point (pHPZC). Due to the chemical nature of WH, several Pb(II) adsorption mechanisms were proposed such as electrostatic attractions, ion exchange, microprecipitation, and π-cation.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 11:3465.

Abstract
Monitoring invasive plant species is a crucial task to assess their presence in affected ecosystems. However, it is a laborious and complex task as it requires vast surface areas, with difficult access, to be surveyed. Remotely sensed data can be a great contribution to such operations, especially for clearly visible and predominant species. In the scope of this study, water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) was monitored in the Lower Mondego region (Portugal). For this purpose, Sentinel-2 satellite data were explored enabling us to follow spatial patterns in three water channels from 2018 to 2021. By applying a straightforward and effective methodology, it was possible to estimate areas that could contain water hyacinth and to obtain the total surface area occupied by this invasive species. The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) was used for this purpose. It was verified that the occupation of this invasive species over the study area exponentially increases from May to October. However, this increase was not verified in 2021, which could be a consequence of the adopted mitigation measures. To provide the results of this study, the methodology was applied through a semi-automatic geographic information system (GIS) application. This tool enables researchers and ecologists to apply the same approach in monitoring water hyacinth or any other invasive plant species in similar or different contexts. This methodology proved to be more effective than machine learning approaches when applied to multispectral data acquired with an unmanned aerial vehicle. In fact, a global accuracy greater than 97% was achieved using the NDVI-based approach, versus 93% when using the machine learning approach (above 93%).

UAV-Based Hyperspectral Monitoring Using Push-Broom and Snapshot Sensors: A Multisite Assessment for Precision Viticulture Applications. SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 22:6574. [PMID: 36081033 PMCID: PMC9460142 DOI: 10.3390/s22176574] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Hyperspectral aerial imagery is becoming increasingly available due to both technology evolution and a somewhat affordable price tag. However, selecting a proper UAV + hyperspectral sensor combo to use in specific contexts is still challenging and lacks proper documental support. While selecting an UAV is more straightforward as it mostly relates with sensor compatibility, autonomy, reliability and cost, a hyperspectral sensor has much more to be considered. This note provides an assessment of two hyperspectral sensors (push-broom and snapshot) regarding practicality and suitability, within a precision viticulture context. The aim is to provide researchers, agronomists, winegrowers and UAV pilots with dependable data collection protocols and methods, enabling them to achieve faster processing techniques and helping to integrate multiple data sources. Furthermore, both the benefits and drawbacks of using each technology within a precision viticulture context are also highlighted. Hyperspectral sensors, UAVs, flight operations, and the processing methodology for each imaging type' datasets are presented through a qualitative and quantitative analysis. For this purpose, four vineyards in two countries were selected as case studies. This supports the extrapolation of both advantages and issues related with the two types of hyperspectral sensors used, in different contexts. Sensors' performance was compared through the evaluation of field operations complexity, processing time and qualitative accuracy of the results, namely the quality of the generated hyperspectral mosaics. The results shown an overall excellent geometrical quality, with no distortions or overlapping faults for both technologies, using the proposed mosaicking process and reconstruction. By resorting to the multi-site assessment, the qualitative and quantitative exchange of information throughout the UAV hyperspectral community is facilitated. In addition, all the major benefits and drawbacks of each hyperspectral sensor regarding its operation and data features are identified. Lastly, the operational complexity in the context of precision agriculture is also presented.

Abstract
In this paper, we consider the difference in the abstraction level of features extracted by different perceptual layers and use a weighted perceptual loss-based generative adversarial network to deblur the UAV images, which removes the blur and restores the texture details of the images well. The perceptual loss is used as an objective evaluation index for training process monitoring and model selection, which eliminates the need for extensive manual comparison of the deblurring effect and facilitates model selection. The UNet jump connection structure facilitates the transfer of features across layers in the network, reduces the learning difficulty of the generator, and improves the stability of adversarial training.

Developing Novel Rice Yield Index Using UAV Remote Sensing Imagery Fusion Technology. DRONES 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/drones6060151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Efficient and quick yield prediction is of great significance for ensuring world food security and crop breeding research. The rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology makes it more timely and accurate to monitor crops by remote sensing. The objective of this study was to explore the method of developing a novel yield index (YI) with wide adaptability for yield prediction by fusing vegetation indices (VIs), color indices (CIs), and texture indices (TIs) from UAV-based imagery. Six field experiments with 24 varieties of rice and 21 fertilization methods were carried out in three experimental stations in 2019 and 2020. The multispectral and RGB images of the rice canopy collected by the UAV platform were used to rebuild six new VIs and TIs. The performance of VI-based YI (MAPE = 13.98%) developed by quadratic nonlinear regression at the maturity stage was better than other stages, and outperformed that of CI-based (MAPE = 22.21%) and TI-based (MAPE = 18.60%). Then six VIs, six CIs, and six TIs were fused to build YI by multiple linear regression and random forest models. Compared with heading stage (R2 = 0.78, MAPE = 9.72%) and all stage (R2 = 0.59, MAPE = 22.21%), the best performance of YI was developed by random forest with fusing VIs + CIs + TIs at maturity stage (R2 = 0.84, MAPE = 7.86%). Our findings suggest that the novel YI proposed in this study has great potential in crop yield monitoring.
