Rice lodging identification relies on manual in situ assessment and often leads to a compensation dispute agricultural disaster assessment. Therefore, this study proposes comprehensive efficient classification technique for lands that entails using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery. In addition spectral information, digital surface model (DSM) texture information of the images was obtained through image-based modeling analysis. Moreover, single feature probability (SFP) values were...

Many people use smartphone cameras to record their living environments through captured images, and share aspects of daily lives on social networks, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. These platforms provide volunteered geographic information (VGI), which enables the public know where when events occur. At same time, image-based VGI can also indicate environmental changes disaster conditions, flooding ranges relative water levels. However, little has been applied for quantification levels...

Recently, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been broadly applied to the remote sensing field. For a great number of UAV images, deep learning has reinvigorated and performed many results in agricultural applications. The popular image datasets for model training are generated general purpose use, which objects, views, applications ordinary scenarios. However, images possess different patterns mostly from look-down perspective. This paper provides verified annotated dataset that described...
