Overview

This edited book focus on two most emerging areas and covers the different aspects of computer vision and drone technology in the field of agriculture. It comprises various applications including segmentation/classification of plant diseases, monitoring of crops, grade/quality estimation of fruits/flowers/vegetables/crops, surveillance, soil deficiency estimation, crop/plant growth estimation, canopy measurement, water stress management, vegetation indices calculation, weed detection, and spraying, among other. It has 17 chapters contributed by experts in the field of computer vision, drone technology, deep learning, machine learning, artificial intelligence, image processing, agriculturist, and plant pathologists. The recent development of high-end computing devices and the adaptation of unmanned aerial vehicles has provided a mechanism to automate traditional agriculture practices. The on-field or aerial images captured using cameras are processed with the help of intelligent algorithms, and an assessment is drawn for further recommendations. This practice is efficient in provisioning an accurate, timely, and economical decision-making system to overcome the problems of agricultural field experts and farmers. This process is advantageous in increasing the quality and quantity of crop yields. This book serves as an excellent guide to students, researchers, scientists, and field experts in directing their work toward this domain and developing/designing models. Further, this book is useful for pathologists, biotechnologists, seed production specialists, breeders, market managers, and other stakeholders associated with underlying technology or market development from the public and private sectors.
