UAV-based AI model improves agricultural displacement measurement accuracy

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a novel algorithm utilizing a U-Net architecture for precise vertical displacement measurements in agricultural areas using UAV photogrammetry. This method employs heteroscedastic regression to predict elevation corrections and their associated uncertainties, offering an improvement over traditional ground filtering techniques. Evaluations showed the U-Net approach achieved a slightly better performance, with one dataset yielding an RMSE of 6.1 cm and an outlier percentage of 0.2%, compared to a benchmark algorithm's RMSE of 7.7 cm and 0.3% outliers.
