  • Measurement of Sugarcane Plant Height with a 3D Model Constructed Using UAV-based RGB Images Captured in the Southern Part of Okinawa Prefecture

    Ryoko Uechi, Takeshi Shikanai, Senlin Guan and Koichiro Fukami

    Agricultural Information Research   32 ( 3 ) 76 - 87   2023 [ Peer Review Accepted ]

    Type of publication: Research paper (scientific journal)

     View Summary

    Many factors have been studied to forecast the production of sugarcane, including the number of stems, stem length, and stem diameter. Although plant height does not directly indicate stem length, determining the plant height can be helpful in cultivation management owing to the close relationship between the two. It is possible to estimate the height of the plant canopy by creating a three-dimensional (3D) model of a field from images taken by a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipped with a camera. However, it is difficult to construct a stable 3D model when a canopy is formed by many structures, as in the case of sugarcane plants, which have many thin stems and leaves. In this study, a stable 3D model was constructed from red-green-blue (RGB) images obtained by a UAV in a sugarcane field in the southern part of the Okinawa Prefecture by combining images taken with a camera angled vertically downward with those taken with a camera mounted at a 30 degrees angle from the nadir. Plant height was measured and estimated during the period between planting and harvesting. The plant height obtained from the 3D model had an error of 7.4%, which is an acceptable level of accuracy for cultivation management, because it provides sufficient information on the lodging conditions of sugarcane. By clarifying the distribution of plant height in the entire field, it was possible to confirm the lodging conditions of sugarcane in the field, which is useful information for planning mechanical harvesting.

     View Summary

    <p>As a method of collecting farm work data, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) position information can be used to record the working activities of agricultural machinery in fields. Since it is difficult to identify and quantify the detailed contents of a machine's working activity, a combined use of GNSS and an onboard digital tachograph system or drive recorder may assist in classifying and analyzing a machine's working activity in each field in detail. In this article, the authors present case studies on the use of the GNSS and an onboard digital tachograph system mounted on several sugarcane harvesters, and describe the detailed approaches to data collection and classification for sugarcane harvesting work.</p>
