摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for acquiring elevation data for an area. The method includes using a GPS receiver to map ground elevations while driving back and forth over an area and periodically recording position, elevation, and time. Then, at least one track is made across the parallel tracks so that the cross track intersects the parallel tracks. The data obtained is processed and elevation data from the cross track is used to adjust elevation data for the parallel tracks, compensating for elevation drift in measurements recorded by the GPS receiver. The adjusted data for the entire area is processed using the method of the present invention to obtain an elevation map for the area.

A process for determining the health of crops in a field and for correcting deficiencies in the health of the crops is disclosed. The process includes georeferencing aerial photographs of at least a portion of the field, the aerial photographs having a particular spatial resolution; determining the green plane in the aerial photographs thus taken; preparing a relative greenness map of the field based upon the nitrogen reference area, the relative greenness map providing crop status information having spatial resolution equivalent to the spatial resolution of the aerial photographs; converting the relative greenness map to a nitrogen recommendation map having spatial resolution equivalent to the spatial resolution of the photographs; and applying nitrogen to the field according to the nitrogen recommendation map, whereby the nitrogen is applied to the field without loss of spatial information. A process for treating crops is also disclosed. The process includes establishing, in a field to be treated, at least one predetermined area of high nitrogen reference; photographing from the air, georeferenced portions of the field, using a particular spatial resolution; differentiating soil and crops, in the photographs thus obtained by segmenting images to select crop pixels; preparing a relative greenness map of the field from green plane based upon the high nitrogen reference area, the relative greenness map providing crop information having spatial resolution equivalent to the particular spatial resolution; and treating the crops in the field in accordance with the relative greenness map.
摘要:
A process for determining the health of crops in a field and treating the crops in accordance with that determination. The process first establishes, in a field in which the health of the crops is to be determined, at least one predetermined reference area of crops having a determined nutrient, e.g. nitrogen, content. Then, georeferenced aerial photographs are taken of at least a portion of the field. From the photographs, the green plane is determined. From the green plane, a relative greenness map of the field based upon the nitrogen reference area is prepared. The greenness map may be transmitted to a farm vehicle on the field and thereafter, the field may be selectively treated in accordance with the nutrient deficiencies detected and recorded on the greenness map.

An agricultural system for acquiring grain samples from a field includes a combine, a grain sample acquiring apparatus for acquiring a grain sample at a plurality of locations within the field, a location signal generating circuit, and a data recorder which communicates with the location signal generating circuit and records the sample site locations. A method of determining and recording locational variations in characteristics of a crop being harvested includes (a) obtaining a sample of the crop at each of a plurality of locations within the field and uniquely identifying each sample; (b) obtaining a locational description of each sample site; (c) correlating the sample identifications and corresponding locational descriptions into first data pairs; (d) recording the first data pairs in a first data file; (e) analyzing the samples to generate location-specific crop data; (f) correlating the location-specific crop data and the corresponding locational descriptions into second data pairs; and (g) recording the second data pairs in a second data file.
