Abstract

Various embodiments relate generally to computer vision and automation to autonomously survey an agricultural environment. In some examples, a system can receive sensor data of a geographic boundary from one or more sensors onboard of the agricultural observation system, detect a plurality of external dynamic objects, a plurality of external static objects, one or more agricultural objects, or a combination thereof from the sensor data, determine a position of a component of the agricultural observation system relative to the plurality of external dynamic objects, the plurality of external static objects, the one or more agricultural objects, or a combination thereof, and generate a local map, in real time, via one or more processing units.
