Description

A kind of method based on triband spectrum index estimation plant nitrogen content

Technical field

The present invention relates to agriculture remote sensing of vegetation field, relate in particular to a kind of method based on triband spectrum index estimation plant nitrogen content.

Background technology

Using of nitrogenous fertilizer is the effective way that improves crop yield and quality, but unscientific nitrogenous fertilizer input can make crop absorb fully, causes economic loss and ecological pollution.Therefore, people's accurate nitrogenous fertilizer management that begins one's study in recent years, thus improve the effective way of utilization rate of nitrogen fertilizer, and obtain the basis that field crops nitrogen situation is accurate nitrogenous fertilizer management accurately and real-time.

Traditional method of obtaining plant nitrogen nutrition mainly depends on destructive sampling, in office analysis is measured, though the result is comparatively reliable, has certain hysteresis quality, and has destroyed the vegetation integrality.The remote sensing of vegetation spectral technique can in real time, fast, nondestructively be monitored the crop nitrogen nutrition situation, in time carries out growth of cereal crop seedlings diagnosis, for accurate nitrogen management provides the reliable technique support.

Remote sensing of vegetation can be distinguished vegetation type and divide, and can deduce out the important parameter of vegetation, can also estimate some physical quantitys relevant with vegetation photosynthesis more exactly.The ultimate principle of remote sensing of vegetation is the spectral characteristic of plant.Different plants have different spectrum characteristic, particularly near-infrared band bigger difference are arranged because the institutional framework of blade is different with biochemical component.

Normalized differential vegetation index (NDVI; Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) is defined as the ratio of difference He these two wave band numerical value sums of near-infrared band and visible red wave band numerical value; Be the statistical parameter that two wave bands of near-infrared band and visible red optical band are represented, that is:

$\mathrm{NDVI}=\frac{R_{\mathrm{nir}}-R_{\mathrm{red}}}{R_{\mathrm{nir}}+R_{\mathrm{red}}}$

The application of NDVI is very extensive, and it is the best indicator of vegetation growth state and coverage, and is closely related with the vegetation distribution situation.Under the situation that has vegetation to cover, NDVI is on the occasion of (＞0), and increases with vegetation coverage.But the main defective of NDVI is: after vegetation coverage was greater than 80%, the NDVI value increased slowly, is state of saturation, has a strong impact on the sensitivity of monitoring.

Summary of the invention

Goal of the invention: the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of method based on triband spectrum index estimation plant nitrogen content; Be used to revise the oversaturated defective of two wave band normalized differential vegetation indexs, set up efficient, an accurate plant nitrogen content monitoring model based on the triband index.

Technical scheme: for realizing above-mentioned purpose, a kind of method based on triband spectrum index estimation plant nitrogen content of the present invention comprises the steps:

(1) measures plant nitrogen content and carry out spectrum sample;

(2) make up triband spectrum index (mNDVI), said $\mathrm{MNDVI}=\frac{(R_{\mathrm{Nir}}-(R_{\mathrm{Red}}-k\×R_{\mathrm{Green}/\mathrm{Blue}}))}{(R_{\mathrm{Nir}}+(R_{\mathrm{Red}}-k\×R_{\mathrm{Green}/\mathrm{Blue}}))},$

R wherein _NirBe the reflectivity of near-infrared band, R _RedBe the reflectivity of visible red optical band, R _Green/blueBe visible light blue green light wave band reflectivity, k is a correction factor;

(3) get mNDVI and the plant nitrogen content correlativity k value when the highest;

(4) respectively near-infrared band (760nm～1000nm), visible red optical band (620～760nm), visible light blue green light wave band (gets R arbitrarily in 400～600nm) _Nir, R _Red, R _Green/blueRandom groups is built the linear regression model (LRM) of upright mNDVI and plant nitrogen content jointly, gets the higher coefficient of determination (R ²) pairing wave band is as optimum R _Nir, R _Red, R _Green/blue

(5) utilize mNDVI to set up the monitoring model of this plant nitrogen content;

(6) monitoring model that obtains of checking procedure (5).

The mensuration of plant nitrogen content adopts destructive sampling in the said step (1), and tested plant sample oven dry is weighed, and adopts Kjeldahl to measure and obtains surveying nitrogen content.Carry out spectrum sample simultaneously, adopt spectral radiometer observed samples in suitable weather, the spectra re-recorded reflectivity.

Simulation k under 0.5 the step change, gets mNDVI and the highest k value of plant nitrogen content correlativity through simulation at interval in the said step (3) in (5,5) interval.The simulation step-length must combine actual conditions to adjust, and when interval steps is excessive, can omits best k value, and when interval steps is too small, can increase amount of calculation, and not significantly improve model accuracy.

Set up monitoring model in the said step (5) and set up monitoring model Y=a * mNDVI+b, and monitoring model is assessed through a plurality of mNDVI with test statistics in the certain hour.The monitoring coefficient of determination (R is adopted in the assessment of said monitoring model _Y ²) and standard error (SE) assessment models degree of fitting.

Said step (6) comprising: the blade nitrogen content (LNC) that utilizes this determination of plant of independent time to get is set up testing model y=c * LNC+d.Said testing model adopts testing accuracy (R _A ²), relatively root-mean-square error (RRMSE) and slope (slope) carry out comprehensive evaluation.

Wherein, $\mathrm{RRMSE}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\×\underset{i=1}{\overset{n}{\mathrm{\Σ}}}{(P_i-O_i)}^2}\×\frac{100}{\stackrel{\‾}{O_i}},$ N is the model testing sample number, P _iBe model estimated value, O _iBe the experimental observation value.

This programme can carry out the nitrogen content monitoring to a certain standalone object, also can monitor the nitrogen content of different objects simultaneously.When monitoring the nitrogen content of different objects, the said definite optimum R of step (4) _Nir, R _Red, R _Green/blueThe time, get the higher coefficient of determination (R of each object ²) best result of preceding 10% common factor.

Beneficial effect: the defective that sensitivity descended when a kind of method based on triband spectrum index estimation plant nitrogen content of the present invention had overcome existing two band spectrum index methods and tends to saturated; Especially the paddy rice under different cultivars, different in moisture processing, the different nitrogen level, the monitoring of wheat leaf blade nitrogen content had higher precision and accuracy; Realize obtaining in real time of crop nitrogen information, promoted crop non-destructive monitoring broad application based on spectral technique.
