Crop Condition Monitoring

Categories: Crop Monitoring

Crop Growth Condition (CGC) monitoring is one of the most important methods for the yield estimation and the food security. The needs for CGC monitoring not only exist in large scale but also in medium or small scale. In this work, Sihong County was chosen to test the ability of the 10-day CGC monitoring by remote sensing data. Over 600 Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 250-m resolution images of Sihong County from 2000 to 2012 were used to monitor CGC.
