Abstract:

Remote sensing information acquisition technology based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has been widely used in agriculture. The use of drone platform to obtain crop remote sensing information is one of the most important methods of obtaining farmland information in precision agriculture. It is characterized by high aging, high resolution, low cost, fast and accurate. UAV remote sensing technology is used to obtain visible light image, cotton, peanut and maize were selected as research materials, different vegetation indices were selected for visible image threshold segmentation. Combined with the supervised classification results of visible light images in the study area, the method of extracting vegetation coverage from vegetation indices of three crops was determined. The experimental results showed that the vegetation index coverage could be effectively extracted using vegetation index threshold classification method. The verification results showed that the method has high precision for extracting vegetation cover information from cotton, peanut and maize.
