Spectral Monitoring of the Crops Vegetation Status in Precision Agriculture

Abstract

This paper proposes an analysis of spectral monitoring processes of the crop vegetation status. In terms of the extensive implementation of precision agriculture, the performant agricultural management must ensure the monitoring of crop vegetation. In this context, determination and interpretation of vegetation indices, based on spectral data, plays a very important role. The performed research revealed the characteristics of monitoring the status of vegetation in order to obtain the necessary information, ie structure, actions and performances required to achieve an efficient system of monitoring the state of vegetation resources and to obtain the application maps for a precision crop management.precision crop management. This complex system ensures data acquisition and processing, thematic and application maps realization and decision generating on obtaining large productions and quality, on optimizing the economic profits, achieving of an integrated environmental protection and increasing of the sustainability of agricultural systems.
