Lab 11 RedEdge – Follow-up   We’ve just flown a RedEdge mission out at Lake Herrick resulting in 275, 5-band multispectral images.  Many of the images were acquired using a vertical flight pattern (5m AGL, 6m AGL, …, 200m AGL). The raw imagery has been converted to percent reflectance (DN […]

Lab11 – MicaSense RedEdge-M – Follow-up

    The MicaSense RedEdge-M a specialized sensor capable of recording reflected energy in the visible blue, green and red wavelengths as well as the non-visible red edge and near-infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Typical response of healthy plants, when compared to stressed plants, is lower in the visible […]
