Abstract Remote sensing is revolutionizing the phenotyping of agricultural field trials, but for many researchers, extraction plot‐level results a bottleneck. We have developed R package FIELDimageR as user‐friendly tool to analyze orthomosaic images containing plots. The basic workflow involves cropping and rotating image, followed by creation shapefile based on experimental design. includes functions calculate number plants per plot, canopy cover percentage, vegetation indices, plant height. publicly available GitHub repository ( https://github.com/filipematias23/FIELDimageR ).
