Our food security is built on the foundation of soil. Farmers would be unable to feed us with fiber, food, and fuel if the soils were not healthy. Accurately predicting the type of soil helps in planning the usage of the soil and thus…

Crop yield production could be enhanced for agricultural growth if various plant nutrition deficiencies, and diseases are identified and detected at early stages. The deep learning methods have proven its superior performances in the…

In light of growing challenges in agriculture with ever growing food demand across the world, efficient crop management techniques are necessary to increase crop yield. Precision agriculture techniques allow the stakeholders to make…

Data-driven deep learning methods have shown great potential in cropland mapping. However, due to multiple factors such as attributes of cropland (topography, climate, crop type) and imaging conditions (viewing angle, illumination, scale),…

Unmanned Aerial vehicles (UAV) are a promising technology for smart farming related applications. Aerial monitoring of agriculture farms with UAV enables key decision-making pertaining to crop monitoring. Advancements in deep learning…

With the advancement of remote-sensed imaging large volumes of very high resolution land cover images can now be obtained. Automation of object recognition in these 2D images, however, is still a key issue. High intra-class variance and low…

Crop mapping is one of the most common tasks in artificial intelligence for agriculture due to higher food demands from a growing population and increased awareness of climate change. In case of vineyards, the texture is very important for…

Land use as contained in geospatial databases constitutes an essential input for different applica-tions such as urban management, regional planning and environmental monitoring. In this paper, a hierarchical deep learning framework is…
