| Abstract |
With its ability to estimate yield, winemakers may better manage their vineyards and obtain important insights into the possible crop. The proper estimation of grape output is contingent upon an accurate evaluation of the morphology of the vine canopy, as this has a substantial impact on the final product. This study's main goals were to gather canopy morphology data using a sophisticated 3D model and assess how well different morphology characteristics predicted yield results. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with an RGB camera was used in the vineyards of Topo & lcaron;& ccaron;ianky, Slovakia, to obtain precise orthophotos of individual vine rows. Following the creation of an extensive three-dimensional (3D) model of the assigned region, a thorough examination was carried out to determine many canopy characteristics, including thickness, side section dimensions, volume, and surface area. According to the study, the best combination for predicting grape production was the side section and thickness. Using more than one morphological parameter is advised for a more precise yield estimate as opposed to depending on only one. |
