14 Proposed future activities within preagro Preagro is a German project for joint research and development of basics for precision farming: Information driven crop production with precision farming as the central scientific and technical precondition for a sustainable development of agricultural land use. Baasdorf Germans largest activity in the field of precision agriculture / precision farming. coordinated by Dr. A. Werner, ZALF. Funded by BMBF. VISTA is in charge for remote sensing applications of hyperspectral data. Multitemporal airborne hyperspectral measurements will be conducted in 2 pilot farms using the AVIS sensor. Directional observations with CHRIS substantially supports data analyses. CHRIS Proba Workshop / March 25 No. 27 Proposed aquisitions for 25 Location of Site location / center:.94 East, 5.84 North Acquisition Mode : full swath, half spatial resolution (36m), 62 bands, along track BRDF (5 angles) Timing of image acquisition: (total: 4 times) 5. May to 3. July: 2 times. August to 5. September: 2 times test site: Baasdorf Germany date: angle: / / / / half swath, full resolution nm (blue) 73-79nm (green) nm (red) CHRIS Proba Workshop / March 25 No. 28

15 Planned Crop Parameters to be retrieved green leaf area fraction brown leaf soil coverage leaf chlorophyll water content of crop structure of crops nitrogen uptake For further assimilation in a crop growth model delivering: biomass and yield precision farming planning (seed density, fertilisation, application of fungicides and pesticides) CHRIS Proba Workshop / March 25 No. 29 Conclusions Basic processing (geometry, atmosphere) of CHRIS data has become a routine effort The SLC canopy model provides good simulation results concerning both spectral and directional domain Parameter retrieval by SLC model inversion started, but optimization (e.g. speed) and validation not completed. Extension of SLC model needed in case of flowering. Sensitivity of BRDF on canopy structure demonstrated and potential to derive structural information from directional measurements Future plans within preagro strongly hope for continuation of CHRIS data provision in 25.
