Abstract

An optical spectrometer is a modern tool for the major biochemical components determining under field conditions. Our report focuses on hardware-software complex, spectral and computing blocks, and methods for the chlorophyll content estimation. Our two-beam spectrometer of high resolution supplied by a system to visualize of measured objects. The method for chlorophyll estimation in vegetation using principal component analysis is proposed. Methods give good results for plant-soil systems with both 100% and incomplete projective covering as our simulation models shown. Field measurements of chlorophyll content in closed and open canopies confirm the results.
