Abstract

Generating spatial distribution maps of canopy temperature (Tc) is the basis for the dynamic management of a variable rate irrigation (VRI) system based on infrared thermometers (IRTs). To improve the accuracy of management zone delineation based on Tc maps for summer maize and winter wheat with IRTs mounted on a moving sprinkler irrigation system, the influence of sampling time interval of Tc was studied and the VRI prescription maps were compared with those obtained from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) thermal imaging on the same day. The experimental sites were located in Shunyi, Beijing, for summer maize and in Dacaozhuang, Hebei Province, for winter wheat. The sampling time intervals were selected as 0.5–26 min. The results demonstrated that the nRMSE of the predicted and measured values for Tc increased and that their correlation coefficient decreased with the extension of the sampling time interval. When the sampling time interval ranged from 0.5 to 5 min, the correlation coefficient and nRMSE between the predicted and measured values for Tc changed little, and the overlap percentage of the same management zones delineated with NRCT between 5 min and the minimum sampling time interval (0.5 or 1 min) was greater than 79%. For any two measuring dates of Tc, their overlap percentage changed greatly, with a maximum value of 67% for NRCT. The average irrigation amount based on the prescription maps of the IRTs system and UAV thermal imaging system on the three observation days was equal. Our results demonstrated techniques to collect IRTs data and to generate VRI prescription map based on this data, and a sampling time interval of no more than 5 minutes was recommended for Tc.
