Soil spectroscopy is a widely used method for estimating soil properties that are important to environmental and agricultural monitoring. However, bottleneck its more widespread adoption the need establishing large reference datasets training machine learning (ML) models, which called spectral libraries (SSLs). Similarly, prediction capacity of new samples also subject number diversity types conditions represented in SSLs. To help bridge this gap enable hundreds stakeholders collect...
Abstract. The number of samples used in the calibration data set affects quality generated predictive models using visible, near and shortwave infrared (VIS–NIR–SWIR) spectroscopy for soil attributes. Recently, convolutional neural network (CNN) has been regarded as a highly accurate model predicting properties on large database. However, it not yet ascertained how sample size should be CNN to effective. This paper investigates effect training accuracy deep learning machine models. It aims...
The mapping of soil attributes provides support to agricultural planning and land use monitoring, which consequently aids the improvement quality food production. Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM) images are often used estimate a given attribute (i.e., clay), but have potential model many other attributes, providing input for applications. In this paper, we aim evaluate Bare Soil Composite Image (BSCI) from state São Paulo, Brazil, calculated multi-temporal dataset, study its relationship with...
Abstract The Earth’s surface dynamics provide essential information for guiding environmental and agricultural policies. Uncovered unprotected surfaces experience several undesirable effects, which can affect soil ecosystem functions. We developed a technique to identify global bare areas their based on multitemporal remote sensing images aid the spatiotemporal evaluation of anthropic natural phenomena. its changes were recognized by Landsat image processing over time range 30 years using...
Soil mapping demands large-scale surveys that are costly and time consuming. It is necessary to identify strategies with reduced costs obtain detailed information for soil mapping. We aimed compare multispectral satellite image relief parameters the quantification of clay sand contents. The Temporal Synthetic Spectral (TESS) reflectance Image (SYSI) approaches were used characterize texture spectral signatures at level. samples collected (0–20 cm depth, 919 points) from an area 14,614 km2 in...
Soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks are a remarkable property for soil and environmental monitoring. The understanding of their dynamics in crop soils must go forward. objective this study was to determine the impact temporal controlling factors obtained by satellite images over SOC along depth, using machine learning algorithms. work carried out São Paulo state (Brazil) an area 2577 km2. We dataset boreholes with analyses from topsoil subsoil (0–100 cm). Additionally, remote sensing covariates...
The capacity of soil to sequester carbon (C) is a key process that promotes the reduction CO2 in atmosphere. Soils can absorb as much 20% anthropogenic emissions, which contribute mitigate climate change. This relies on organo-mineral association, includes different minerals, Fe and Al oxides, have critical organic (SOC) sorption surface. Based an equation potential C saturation deficit fine particles (<20 μm/silt clay fractions) for tropical regions, this study investigated SOC...
