Snap bean, a broad-acre crop that covers hundreds of thousands of acres across the USA, is not exempt from this need for informed, within-field, and spatially-explicit management approaches. This study aimed to assess the utility of machine learning algorithms for growth stage and pod maturity classification of snap bean (cv. Huntington), as well as detecting and discriminating spectral and biophysical features that lead to accurate classification results. Four major growth stages and six main sieve size pod maturity levels were evaluated for growth stage and pod maturity classification, respectively. A point-based in situ spectroradiometer in the visible-near-infrared and shortwave-infrared domains (VNIR-SWIR; 400\u20132500 nm) was used and the radiance values were converted to reflectance to normalize for any illumination change between samples. After preprocessing the raw data, we approached pod maturity assessment with multi-class classification and growth stage determination with binary and multi-class classification methods. Results from the growth stage assessment via the binary method exhibited accuracies ranging from 90\u201398%, with the best mathematical enhancement method being the continuum-removal approach. The growth stage multi-class classification method used raw reflectance data and identified a pair of wavelengths, 493 nm and 640 nm, in two basic transforms (ratio and normalized difference), yielding high accuracies (~79%). Pod maturity assessment detected narrow-band wavelengths in the VIS and SWIR region, separating between not ready-to-harvest and ready-to-harvest scenarios with classification measures at the ~78% level by using continuum-removed spectra. Our work is a best-case scenario, i.e., we consider it a stepping-stone to understanding snap bean harvest maturity assessment via hyperspectral sensing at a scalable level (i.e., airborne systems). Future work involves transferring the concepts to unmanned aerial system (UAS) field experiments and validating whether or not a simple multispectral camera, mounted on a UAS, could incorporate &lt; 10 spectral bands to meet the need of both growth stage and pod maturity classification in snap bean production.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs12223809","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,20]],"date-time":"2020-11-20T09:46:18Z","timestamp":1605865578000},"page":"3809","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Growth Stage Classification and Harvest Scheduling of Snap Bean Using Hyperspectral Sensing: A Greenhouse Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0171-238X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amirhossein","family":"Hassanzadeh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Chester F.
