Temporal resolution for crop discrimination estimated using J-M distanceA study is presented which examines techniques utilizing spectral/phenological data to classify and mensurate target crops at predetermined accuracies in order to estimate the temporal resolution requirements for a remote sensing system. An analysis is made of the physical target (crop) characteristics as they vary in time. A model is developed relating the frequency required to attain a particular probability of correct discrimination with N accumulated observations to that required with single observations. Finally, results for a multicrop spectral data set are shown to substantiate the theoretically-modeled results.
