Abstract:
The oak wilt fungus (C. fagacearum) spreads both through root grafts to adjacent trees and via insects over longer distances. Effective control of the disease requires a better understanding of the spatial and temporal components of both types of spread. Towards that end, color infrared aerial photography covering a ten-year interval of time was interpreted and then analyzed using a GIS for purposes of describing spread rates and areas affected. The GIS allowed rapid and thorough assessment of both overland and local disease spread. New infection centers were found to occur at greater distance

Optical image sensors are the most common remote sensing data acquisition devices present in Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). In this context, assigning a location in a geographic frame of reference to the acquired image is a necessary task in the majority of the applications. This process is denominated direct georeferencing when ground control points are not used. Despite it applies simple mathematical fundamentals, the complete direct georeferencing process involves much information, such as camera sensor characteristics, mounting measurements, attitude and position of the UAS, among others.

Abstract The balsam woolly adelgid (Adelges piceae) was introduced from Europe to northeastern North America in about 1900. In 1983, it was discovered infesting fir trees in Idaho.

Abstract:
Fires occurring at the exterior of high-rise buildings can be hard to tackle using current firefighting technology and tactics. Accessing fires at high floors is difficult, and can often result in delays in fire suppression, which in turn may lead to an uncontrollable fire. This paper proposes a semiautomated system of multiple, aerial robots that can suppress incipient cladding fires in high-rise buildings. Each developed UAV has six litres of pressurised aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) solution, a two degrees of freedom nozzle, a thermal imaging camera (TIC), and an automated algorithm that

Abstract:
Alaska-cedar, Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (D. Don) Spach, has been dying in undisturbed forests throughout southeast Alaska for the last 100 years. To determine if decline spreads, boundaries of mortality at seven sites with decline were mapped using aerial photographs taken in 1927, 1948, 1965, and 1976. Mortality was present at all seven sites in 1927. The boundaries of mortality have since expanded, but not by more than 100 m beyond the 1927 limit. In ground surveys, dead Alaska-cedar trees, classified according to their degree of deterioration, were recorded in 427 plots along 39 transects.

Abstract:
Disease management in agriculture often assumes that pathogens are spread homogeneously across crops. In practice, pathogens can manifest in patches. Currently, disease detection is predominantly carried out by human assessors, which can be slow and expensive. A remote sensing approach holds promise. Current satellite sensors are not suitable to spatially resolve individual plants or lack temporal resolution to monitor pathogenesis. Here, we used multispectral imaging and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to explore whether myrtle rust (Austropuccinia psidii) could be detected on a lemon myrtle (B

Abstract:
Binary pulse-position modulated (PPM) control signal is widely used in remotely controlled unmanned aerial vehicles. It consists of data frames, which contain a synchronizing pulse followed by a number of shorter pulses equal to the number of channels N. In this paper we present analysis and optimization of direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) scheme for PPM control signal protection. That scheme uses (N+1) pseudonoise (PN) sequences: one of them (PN0) is assigned to the synchronizing pulse while the each of the remaining N sequences (PN1,PN2, . . . ,PNN) corresponds to the appropriate chan

The species richness and biodiversity of vegetation in Hungary are increasingly threatened by invasive plant species brought in from other continents and foreign ecosystems. These invasive plant species have spread aggressively in the natural and semi-natural habitats of Europe. Common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is one of the species that pose the greatest ecological menace. Therefore, the primary purpose of the present study is to map and monitor the spread of common milkweed, the most common invasive plant species in Europe.

Invasive species spread rapidly and their eradication is difficult. New methods enabling fast and efficient monitoring are urgently needed for their successful control. Remote sensing can improve early detection of invading plants and make their management more efficient and less expensive. In an ongoing project in the Czech Republic, we aim at developing innovative methods of mapping invasive plant species (semi-automatic detection algorithms) by using purposely designed unmanned aircraft (UAV). We examine possibilities for detection of two tree and two herb invasive species. Our aim is to es

Environmental pollution by toxic metals is a common ecological problem. Chromium and copper compounds released into the environment as a result of human-made stress pose a serious threat to living organisms. Phytoremediation is a promising method of toxic metals removal from contaminated sites. The concentration of metals in grass biomass—in the roots and aerial parts—was determined by X-ray fluorescence analysis. The estimation of numbers of microorganisms was conducted by a tenfold dilution and spread-plating method. It was shown that lawn grass accumulated from 69.1 ± 13.2 to 497.7 ± 74.1 m

Human ecology has played an essential role in the spread of mosquito-borne diseases. With standing water as a significant factor contributing to mosquito breeding, artificial containers disposed of as trash—which are capable of holding standing water—provide suitable environments for mosquito larvae to develop. The development of these larvae further contributes to the possibility for local transmission of mosquito-borne diseases in urban areas such as Zika virus.
