  1. Effects of distance to target, time of the day, wetness of the leaves, and sensor position on active sensor readings Fernando Solari, Paul Hodgen, John Shanahan, and Jim Schepers

  2. Objectives To determine how • Sensors distance to the target • Time of the day • Wetness of the leaves • Shifts from on row position Affects sensor readings outputs

  14. Distance to targetConclusions • Crop Circle: 40 to 100 cm lowest CV for NDVI and Gitelson VI • GreenSeeker: 70-105 cm lower CV than 55-125cm

  26. Time of the day effect studyConclusions • Time of the day can affect sensor readings • (Growth?, Wind?, Power supply,?)

  35. On the row studyConclusion • The principal effect of to be off the row is underestimation. • The effect is much more important at early stages.

  36. How important is dew presence or sprinkle?

  38. Conclusions • Distance: • GreenSeeeker: 80-110cm cm to target • Crop Circle: 40-100 cm to target • Time of the day • Time of the day can affect sensor readings (Growth?, Wind?, Power supply,?) • Position • Important to be on row (If not, underestimation) • Watering • Does not affect
