“…The time spent for evaluating the presence and extent of contamination can be reduced by an adequate sampling plan (Malherbe, 2002) which can at the same time, reduce the project costs (Horta et al, 2015). Proximal sensing that is all methods that sense the soil from outside (McBratney et al, 2011;Viscarra Rossel et al, 2011) can help in supporting the identification and characterization of contaminated site particularly with conjoint use of Vis-NIR and Portable X-ray fluorescence proximal sensors and laboratory analysis (Horta et al 2015). Extending innovation on these proximal sensors would be then of great interest for characterizing soil contamination.…”

This chapter aimed to demonstrate, by several illustrated examples, that Human Health should be considered as another major challenge of global soil security by emphasizing the fact that (a) soil contamination is a worldwide issue, estimations can be done based on local contamination but the extent and content of diffuse contamination is largely unknown; (b) although soil is able to store, filter and reduce contamination, it can also transform and make accessible soil contaminants and their metabolites, contributing then to human health impacts. The future scientific and societal challenges related to Soil-Human Health studies and soil security dimensions are discussed afterwards based on current programs and literature review.

“…On the other hand, several non-contact Fig. 1 Schematic representation of a three-dimensional sensor unit, positioned in front of the tractor for a feed-forward loop or alternatively behind the tractor for a feed-back system Precision Agric approaches potentially suitable for fast soil sensing have been proposed in the past and in recent years (Viscarra Rossel et al 2011), mainly based on image analysis techniques (Stafford and Ambler, 1990), laser scanning (Bertuzzi et al 1990;Darboux and Huang, 2003;Chatzinikos et al 2013) and photogrammetry (Aguilar et al 2009). However such techniques suffer from various impediments.…”

Application of the Kinect sensor for dynamic soil surface characterization

Agricultural soil roughness is pertinent to important agricultural phenomena, such as evaporation, infiltration or compression. Monitoring roughness variations would make possible the improvement of tillage operations. In the present work, implementation of the Microsoft Kinect™ RGB-depth camera for dynamic characterization of soil micro-relief is proposed and discussed. The metrological performance and the effect of the operating conditions on three-dimensional reconstruction was analyzed considering both laboratory tests on calibrated reference surfaces and field tests on different agricultural soil surfaces. Data set analysis was made on the basis of surface roughness parameters, as defined by ISO 25178 (2012) series: average roughness, root mean square roughness, skewness and kurtosis. Correlation between different tillage conditions and roughness parameters describing soil morphology was finally discussed

“…These sensors are referred to as proximal soil sensors (PSS). They include all fieldbased sensors that are operated either in close (within 2 m) or in direct contact with and obtain signals from the soil (Viscarra Rossel et al, 2011). Proximal soil sensors include most geophysical methods and others such as ion-selective potentiometry, nuclear magnetic resonance, optical reflectance (ultraviolet, visible-near infrared, and midinfrared reflectance spectroscopy), gamma ray spectroscopy, X-ray Fig.…”
