Information and Communication Technologies for Agriculture—Theme I: Sensors
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-84143-0 (ISBN)
The focus in this volume is on different aspects of sensors implementation in agricultural production (e.g., types of sensors, parameters monitoring, network types, connectivity, accuracy, reliability, durability, and needs to be covered) and provides variety of information and knowledge in the subject of sensors design, development, and deployment for monitoring agricultural production parameters. The book consists of four (4) Sections. The first section presents an overview on the state-off-the art in sensing technologies applied in agricultural production while the rest of the sections are dedicated to remote sensing, proximal sensing, and wireless sensor networks applications.
Topics include:
- Emerging sensing technologies
- Soil reflectance spectroscopy
- LoRa technologies applications in agriculture
- Wireless sensor networks deployment and applications
- Combined remote and proximal sensing solutions
- Crop phenology monitoring
- Sensors for geophysical properties
- Combined sensing technologies with geoinformation systems
