Monitoring phenological footprints of corn in Kansas
S. Varela
Kansas State University

One limitation of the use of remote sensing is the implementation of systematized workflows for large scale monitoring of crops performance. This information is particularly relevant for Kansas due to a marked regional variability of annual precipitations, soil types, and yield potential across the state. We propose a workflow for the systematic extraction of in seasonal phenological metrics and the detection of anomalies using MODIS MOD13Q1 product during the period 2000-2016. The methodology utilizes geolocated fields across for the: 1) extraction of NDVI time series. 2) interpretation of the time series profile for the estimation of phenological metrics, and 3) identification of in seasonal anomalies. The metrics include: date of emergence, critical phases of the vegetative period, and, maturity. The methodology disaggregates the information of the time series in the following components for in seasonal anomalies detection: A) seasonal, B) general trend, and C) residual signal, key for the identification of anomalous temporal segments in the seasons. Finally, the detected temporal anomalies are then evaluated as extreme in-seasonal weather event footprints penalizing yield.
