Remote sensing is a very promising data collection tool for precision agriculture. However, the limitation in remote sensing data quality/availability has become a major obstacle in the demonstration and adoption of the technology. In this project, we are trying to fine tune a remote sensing system for crop canopy monitoring. Our goal is to eliminate the uncontrollable effects such as timing lighting conditions of the remote sensing images in the in-field variability mapping process.
