Prediction Models for Crop Mapping

Crops are plants that are grown for food. Unless the available productive land which is the main source of human sustenance is protected and used in a scientific way to give better and increased returns there is no hope of human survival. The following chapter focuses on effective implementation of prediction algorithms for crop cover mapping. The various methods that have been, or could be used for crop cover mapping are discussed. The potential indicators that have been, or could be, used in crop prediction modelling are also discussed.
