Title
Leaf Area Index Estimation of Winter Pepper Based on Canopy Spectral Data and Simulated Bands of Satellite.
Abstract
Leaf area index (LAI) is an important indicator of crop growth status. In this paper, the relationships between canopy reflectance at 400–2500 nm and leaf area index (LAI) in pepper crop were studied. 102 pair of canopy reflectance and LAI of pepper were collected in 2014–2015. Reflectance of canopy were measured in the field over a spectral range of 400–2500 nm. Simultaneously, the LAI were collected by the LAI-2000. Estimation models of LAI were developed based on the whole spectrum range by partial least squares regression (PLSR) and support vector regression (SVR), respectively. Then the field canopy spectra were resampled according to the band response functions of seven satellite sensors. They were the Vegetation and environment monitoring on a new micro-satellite (VENμS), Worldview-2 (WV-2), RapidEye-1 (RE-1), HJ1/CCD1, Sentinel-2, Landsat 8/OLI and GaoFen (GF) 1/WFV1. The values of common used spectral indices were calculated based on the simulated sensor bands, respectively. Prediction models were also developed based on the spectral indices and simulated bands. The results showed that the PLSR model by whole spectrum had the good accuracy of LAI estimation with the R2c = 0.726, RMSEc = 0.462, R2cv = 0.635, RMSEcv = 0.538. For the simulated satellite datasets, the better LAI estimation were obtained by Sentinel-2 and Venμs bands with the R2cv greater than 0.600 and RMSEcv less than 0.557. The Estimation model by simulated WV-2 bands, and RE-1 bands had the lowest performance with the R2cv between 0.50 and 0.55, and RMSEcv between 0.600 and 0.623. The inversion results demonstrated the potential of the multispectral remote sensing data to calibrate the LAI estimation model of winter pepper for the precision agriculture application.
