Abstract :
The main obstacle for monitoring weed disasters is how the information from RS and GIS associates with weed disaster modeling. In the information representing physical and logical fusion objects subject to weed disaster monitoring, we analyze a system architecture model for solving the related design issues, including area and type estimation of weed disaster. Besides the information or data fusion, we use the model as a tool of data fusion to avoid the parameter estimation problems in complex environments. Most surprisingly, externally gathered data from local statistics sensors can be entered into a GIS along with the imagery data for increasing the precision of weed disaster modeling.
