MAIZE YIELD PREDICTION AND CONDITION MONITORING AT THE SUB-COUNTY SCALE IN KENYA: SYNTHESIS OF REMOTE SENSING INFORMATION AND CROP MODELING

Maize yield prediction and condition monitoring at the sub-county scale in Kenya: synthesis of remote sensing information and crop modeling

Abstract Agricultural production assessments are crucial for formulating strategies for closing yield gaps and enhancing production efficiencies.While in situ crop yield measurements can provide valuable and accurate information, such approaches are costly and lack scalability for large-scale assessments.Therefore, crop modeling and Vitamin E remot

A New 32-Day Average-Difference Method for Calculating Inter-Sensor Calibration Radiometric Biases between SNPP and NOAA-20 Instruments within ICVS Framework

Two existing double-difference (DD) methods, using either a 3rdSensor or Radiative Transfer Modeling (RTM) as a transfer, are applicable primarily for limited regions and channels, and, thus critical in capturing inter-sensor calibration radiometric IMMUNOCARE bias features.A supplementary method is also desirable for estimating inter-sensor calibr
