The ICPA is the biggest conference on the topic of precision agriculture worldwide. Due to its interdisciplinary character, it attracts experts from the fields of photogrammetry and remote sensing, agronomy and plant physiology to exchange recent developments and views on the way forward in precision agriculture.

Within the field of precision agriculture, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based remote sensing is rapidly adopted. In my PhD thesis I evaluate the potentials of UAVs in combination with novel hyperspectral snapshot cameras for the retrieval of agricultural crop parameters. At ICPA, I presented “High resolution 3D hyperspectral digital surface models from lightweight UAV snapshot cameras  – potentials for precision agriculture applications“, one of the major outcomes of my thesis.
