Delineation of Bare Soil Field Areas from Unmanned Aircraft System Imagery with the Mean Shift Unsupervised Clustering and the Random Forest Supervised Classification

The use of aerial remote sensing platforms such as Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) has been proven as a cost and time effective way to perform tasks related to precision agriculture and decision making. Two machine learning (ML) algorithms have been implemented on UAS blue and red band imagery to de...
