  • Patent number: 10817754
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a system and a method for assigning pixels within agricultural imagery collected from overhead platforms to one or more classes based on spectral and/or spatial content. The system comprises one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instructions to: receive output signals provided by one or more remote sensing devices mounted to an overhead platform, the output signals conveying information related to one or more agricultural images; and assign pixels within the agricultural images to one or more classes based on spectral and/or spatial content of the agricultural images, wherein the one or more classes include a signal class and a noise class.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10803313
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a system and a method for determining statistics of plant populations based on overhead optical measurements. The system may include one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instructions to receive output signals provided by one or more remote sensing devices mounted to an overhead platform. The output signals may convey information related to one or more images of a land area where crops are grown. The one or more hardware processors may be configured by machine-readable instructions to distinguish vegetation from background clutter; segregate image regions corresponding to the vegetation from image regions corresponding to the background clutter; and determine a plant count per unit area.
