Abstract: Implementations relate to detecting/replacing transient obstructions from high-elevation digital images, and/or to fusing data from high-elevation digital images having different spatial, temporal, and/or spectral resolutions. In various implementations, first and second temporal sequences of high-elevation digital images capturing a geographic area may be obtained. These temporal sequences may have different spatial, temporal, and/or spectral resolutions (or frequencies). A mapping may be generated of the pixels of the high-elevation digital images of the second temporal sequence to respective sub-pixels of the first temporal sequence. A point in time at which a synthetic high-elevation digital image of the geographic area may be selected. The synthetic high-elevation digital image may be generated for the point in time based on the mapping and other data described herein.

Abstract: Implementations relate to crop yield prediction at the field- and pixel-level. In various implementations, a first temporal sequence of high-elevation digital images may be obtained that capture a first geographic area and are acquired over a first predetermined time interval while the first geographic area includes a particular crop. A first plurality of other data points may also be obtained that influence a ground truth crop yield of the first geographic area after the first predetermined time interval. The first plurality of other data points may be grouped into temporal chunks corresponding temporally with respective images of the first temporal sequence. The first temporal sequence and the temporal chunks of the first plurality of other data points may be applied, e.g., iteratively, as input across a machine learning model to estimate a crop yield of the first geographic area at the end of the first predetermined time interval.

Abstract: Implementations are described herein for predicting a future climate condition in an agricultural area. In various implementations, a teleconnection model may be applied to a dataset of remote climate conditions such as water surface temperatures to identify one or more of the most influential remote climate conditions on the future climate condition in the agricultural area. A trained machine learning model may be applied to the one or more most influential remote climate conditions and to historical climate data for the agricultural area to generate data indicative of the predicted future climate condition. Based on the data indicative of the predicted future climate condition, one or more output components may be caused to render output that conveys the predicted future climate condition.

Abstract: Implementations are described herein for automatically generating synthetic training images that are usable, for instance, as training data for training machine learning models to detect and/or classify various types of plant diseases at various stages in digital images. In various implementations, one or more environmental features associated with an agricultural area may be retrieved. One or more synthetic plant models may be generated to visually simulate one or more stages of a progressive plant disease, taking into account the one or more environmental features associated with the agricultural area. The one or more synthetic plant models may be graphically incorporated into a synthetic training image that depicts the agricultural area.

Abstract: Implementations are described herein for predicting soil organic carbon (“SOC”) content for agricultural fields detected in digital imagery. In various implementations, one or more digital images depicting portion(s) of one or more agricultural fields may be processed. The one or more digital images may have been acquired by a vision sensor carried through the field(s) by a ground-based vehicle. Based on the processing, one or more agricultural inferences indicating agricultural practices or conditions predicted to affect SOC content may be determined. Based on the agricultural inferences, one or more predicted SOC measurements for the field(s) may be determined.
