Title Detection of utility poles from noisy Point Cloud Data in Urban environments. Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing Conference (AICCC 2018) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 53-57
Keywords
Abstract In recent years 3D urban maps have become more common, thus providing complex point clouds that include diverse urban furniture such as pole-like objects. Utility poles detection in urban environment is of particular interest for electric utility companies in order to maintain an updated inventory for better planning and management. The present study develops an automatic method for the detection of utility poles from noisy point cloud data of Guayaquil – Ecuador, where many poles are located next to buildings, or houses are built until the border of the sidewalk getting very close to poles, which increases the difficulty of discriminating poles, walls, columns, fences and building corners.

Title Uso de software de código abierto para fusión de imágenes agrícolas multiespectrales adquiridas con drones. Type Conference Article
Year 2019 Publication International Multi-Conference of Engineering, Education and Technology (LACCEI 2019); Montego Bay, Jamaica Abbreviated Journal
Volume 2019-July Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract Los drones o aeronaves no tripuladas son muy útiles para la adquisición de imágenes, de forma mucho más simple que los satélites o aviones. Sin embargo, las imágenes adquiridas por drones deben ser combinadas de alguna forma para convertirse en información de valor sobre un terreno o cultivo. Existen diferentes programas que reciben imágenes y las combinan en una sola imagen, cada uno con diferentes características (rendimiento, precisión, resultados, precio, etc.). En este estudio se revisaron diferentes programas de código abierto para fusión de imágenes, con el ?n de establecer cuál de ellos es más útil, especí?camente para ser utilizado por pequeños y medianos agricultores en Ecuador. Los resultados pueden ser de interés para diseñadores de software, ya que al utilizar código abierto, es posible modi?car e integrar los programas en un ?ujo de trabajo más simpli?cado. Además, que permite disminuir costos debido a que no requiere de pagos de licencias para su uso, lo cual puede repercutir en un mayor acceso a la tecnología para los pequeños y medianos agricultores. Como parte de los resultados de este estudio se ha creado un repositorio de acceso público con algoritmos de pre-procesamiento necesarios para manipular las imágenes adquiridas por una cámara multiespectral y para luego obtener un mapa completo en formatos RGB, CIR y NDVI.

Title Open Source system for identification of corn leaf chlorophyll contents based on multispectral images Type Conference Article
Year 2019 Publication International Conference on Applied Technologies (ICAT 2019); Quito, Ecuador Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 572-581
Keywords
Abstract It is important for farmers to know the level of chlorophyll in plants since this depends on the treatment they should give to their crops. There are two common classic methods to get chlorophyll values: from laboratory analysis and electronic devices. Both methods obtain the chlorophyll level of one sample at a time, although they can be destructive. The objective of this research is to develop a system that allows obtaining the chlorophyll level of plants using images.

Python programming language and different libraries of that language were used to develop the solution. It was decided to implement an image labeling module, a simple linear regression and a prediction module. The first module was used to create a database that links the values of the images with those of chlorophyll, which was then used to obtain linear regression in order to determine the relationship between these variables. Finally, the linear

regression was used in the prediction system to obtain chlorophyll values from the images. The linear regression was trained with 92 images, obtaining a root-mean-square error of 7.27 SPAD units. While the testing was perform using 10 values getting a maximum error of 15.5%.

It is concluded that the system is appropriate for chlorophyll contents identification of corn leaves in field tests.

However, it can also be adapted for other measurement and crops. The system can be downloaded at github.com/JoeSvr95/NDVI-Checking [1].
