TI - Bringing automated, remote‐sensed, machine learning methods to monitoring crop landscapes at scale SN - 1574-0862 PY - 2019/// CY - Amsterdam (Netherlands) PB - IAAE, Wiley KW - AGROVOC KW - Machine learning KW - Crop monitoring KW - Remote sensing N1 - Peer review N2 - This article provides an overview of how recent advances in machine learning and the availability of data from earth observing satellites can dramatically improve our ability to automatically map croplands over long periods and over large regions. It discusses three applications in the domain of crop monitoring where machine learning (ML) approaches are beginning to show great promise. For each application, it highlights machine learning challenges, proposed approaches, and recent results. The article concludes with discussion of major challenges that need to be addressed before ML approaches will reach their full potential for this problem of great societal relevance DO - https://doi.org/10.1111/agec.12531 T2 - Agricultural Economics ER -
