  • Patent number: 10120543
    Abstract: An unmanned image capture system captures images of a field or work area using a first, spectral image capture system and a second video image capture system. Crop location data that is indicative of the location of crop plants within the field, is obtained. Evaluation zones in the image data generated by the first image capture system are identified based on the crop location data. Crop plants within the evaluation zones are then identified, analyzed to generate a corresponding emergence metric, and linked to a corresponding video image generated by the second image capture system.

  • Publication number: 20170344896
    Abstract: Systems and methods for disambiguation of agricultural input are disclosed. An example disclosed method includes determining a first probability for a second product specifier. The first probability indicates a likelihood that the second product specifier is correct. Additionally, the example method includes, in response to determining that agricultural input identifiers for a manufacturer associated with a portion of the first product specifier are in a variety database, modifying the first probability with a second probability. The example method includes, in response to determining that the agricultural input identifiers for the manufacturer associated with the portion of the first product specifier are not in the variety database, modifying the first probability with a third probability different from the second probability.
