Thermal imaging visualizes differences in surface temperature by detecting infrared radiation emitted by objects. Thermography has been used for scheduling irrigation, soil salinity detection, detection of diseases and pathogens, estimating yield, maturity evaluation and vegatative damage detection. This paper briefly reviews various studies conducted on application of thermal imaging in agriculture and forestry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
