An Investigation of Winter Wheat Leaf Area Index Fitting Model Using Spectral and Canopy Height Model Data from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Imagery

Remote Sensing, 2022
The leaf area index (LAI) is critical for the respiration, transpiration, and photosynthesis of crops. Color indices (CIs) and vegetation indices (VIs) extracted from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery have been widely applied to the monitoring of the crop LAI. However, when the coverage of the crop canopy is large and only spectral data are used to
