Estimating the maize biomass by crop height and narrowband vegetation indices derived from UAV-based hyperspectral images

Monitoring the aboveground biomass (AGB) of maize is essential for improving site-specific nutrient management and predicting yield to ensure food safety. A low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was employed to acquire hyperspectral imagery of the maize canopy at three growth stages (V6, R1, R3...
