Fallow Season Weed Detection

Identifies weeds over bare soil, providing 10m resolution maps and related data over your specified area of interest.

This service detects weed patches of 10m by 10m or greater that are present in fallow fields/paddocks, enabling effective weed management and decision making in remote areas or for those without high-resolution technology. Given an area of interest, the algorithm is run using Sentinel-2 to return the detected weeds for the fallow area from the start date to the optional end date. The output is provided as a GeoTIFF classifying weed (1) and non-weed (0). A preview image is also provided along with an outline of the weed areas as a series of polygons (where the minimum size of the polygons can be optionally modified using the options). A CSV file is also output containing data for the whole area and individual fields/paddocks, which includes weed area and percentage.
