Abstract:

SPAD spectral characteristics of cotton leaves in North China Plain need to be ascertained, and the most suitable modeling method is yet to be studied. Aiming at the cotton area of North China Plain and based on unmanned drone multi-spectrum, this paper explored SPAD spectral characteristics of cotton leaves and the best modeling method. Focusing on the cotton area of North China Plain in the Yellow River Basin, we took Dali village cotton area of Xiajin County, Dezhou City as research area, used unmanned drone to obtain multispectral images at flowering and boll stage, and simultaneously determined SPAD value of cotton leaves. In this paper, the original spectrum was preprocessed and combined to construct the spectral index, and then 6 cotton SPAD characteristic spectral indexes were screened out by correlation analysis. BP neural network (BPNN), multiple stepwise regression (MSR) and support vector machine (SVM) methods were used respectively to construct quantitative analysis model of SPAD value of cotton, and verified, compared and optimized the best model and modeling method, and then quantitatively analyzed the spatial distribution of cotton leaf SPAD in the research area. The results show that: the characteristic bands of cotton leaf SPAD are red band and red edge band. The characteristic spectral index of the selected model are r, r*reg, (reg-r)/(reg+r), r-g, r/g and. $\sqrt{r^{2}+g^{2}}$ Compared the three modeling methods, BPNN model has the highest accuracy. Its modeling set R2 and RMSE are 0.747 and 4.568, respectively, and its verification set R2, RMSE and RPD are 0.758, 4.142 and 2.135, respectively, and the model is determined as the best one of cotton leaf SPAD. Based on BP neural network model, the spatial distribution of cotton leaf SPAD is inverted, and the inversion value is highly consistent with the measured value, and the fitting result is good. BP neural network could be used as a preferred method for SPAD modeling of cotton leaves of North China Plain based on unmanned drone multi-spectrum. This research could promote quantitative remote sensing of cotton field and monitoring of cotton growth.
