Abstract

Precision agriculture methods and systems where drone images of an agricultural field are captured by a UAV and analyzed to generate information regarding the agricultural field. Items of interest are identified in the images, the pixel-space locations of the items of interest are determined, and the world-space locations of the items of interest are then determined using the pixel-space locations. The transformation from pixel-space location to world-space location occurs without transforming the images or processing transformed images.
