Introduction: Remote sensing using unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are prevalent for phenomics and precision agricultural applications. The high-resolution data for these applications can provide useful spectral characteristics of crops associated with performance traits such as seed yield. With the recent availability of high-resolution satellite imagery, there has been growing interest in using this technology for plot-scale remote sensing applications, particularly those related to breeding programs.
