Abstract

A system and method identify/verify tillage using satellite time series imagery by executing four steps in a loop to improve accuracy over time. First, satellite data are downloaded and preprocessed to retain only 'good' images. Second, from fields with validated tillage, the relationship between satellite data and corresponding tillage types is learned to define a tillage prediction model. Next, the knowledge from the previous step is used to make prediction of tillage types for new fields using image statistics of the new field as input. Finally, predicted tillage will be validated manually, if needed using supplementary information, and new fields with validated tillage will be added to the existing validated list to gain new knowledge for further establishing between satellite data and corresponding tillage types.
