Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent developments in satellite and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) provide various tools for crop monitoring. The focus of research is now shifting from how to monitor crop to how to use the information of monitored crop. Crop monitoring is required in terms of smart agriculture, disaster monitoring, food security, etc. Monitoring which was difficult a few years ago has become easier, making it possible to provide new information and services. This Special Issue invites studies associated with such purposes. Manuscripts that propose new or improved utilization of crop monitoring are welcomed. Developments of crop monitoring methods, data analyzing methods, and results-displaying methods will be accepted to utilize the information acquired through monitoring crop.
