Remote Sensing for Viticultural Research and Production

Geographic Information Systems are critical tools to manage wine tourism regions

“…Mapping and monitoring tools and techniques are well developed and widely used to study the environment (Johnson et al, 2012). In recent years, there has been an increasing number of tools which support geotechnologies, providing more accurate and faster results, and reducing the operational costs of projects (Viel et al, 2019).…”

“…Global Position System (GPS), remote sensing and GIS have changed the way the earth's surface is visualised, analysed and monitored (Johnson et al, 2012). In general, geospatial tools involve GPS for data collection.…”

“…Considering the uneven spatial distribution of activities such as grape growing and wine production, geotechnology is a useful way of studying their spatial distribution, as these technologies can integrate physical, cultural, and economic variables. In addition to Geographical Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing imagery in particular, enables research to be undertaken which is integral to the landscape and which provides helpful, up-to-date accounts of changes (Dougherty, 2012;Johnson et al, 2012).…”

“…Atkinson 2011;Dion 1959;Unwin 1991;Whalen 2010;van Leeuwen and Seguin 2006). Moreover, Dougherty's (2012) edited book on the Geography of Wine features a number of examples regarding wine in relation to the cultural, regional, physical, economic and technical context, and advances our current understanding of the Canadian wine tourism sector (Carmichael and Senese 2012), the physical and cultural characteristics of terroir in Burgundy and Bordeaux (Lemaire andKasserman 2012), viticulture in California (Elliott-Fisk 2012), and how GIS (geographical information systems) and remote-sensing techniques can be deployed to manage vineyards (Green 2012;Johnson et al 2012), and so on.…”

Applying Geospatial Tools and Techniques to Viticulture

“…Remote sensing has also begun to be increasingly adopted as a part of the interpretation phase of precision viticulture (Hall et al. 2003; Johnson et al. 2003b, 2012).…”
