Irrigation scheduling strategies based on evapotranspiration (ET), such as regulated deficit irrigation, requires the estimation of seasonal crop coefficients (kc). The ET-driven irrigation decisions for grapevines rely on the sampling of several kc values from each irrigation zone. Here, we present an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based technique to estimate kc at the single vine level in order to capture the spatial variability of water requirements in a commercial vineyard located in South Australia. A UAV carrying a multispectral sensor is used to extract the spectral, as well as the structural, information of Cabernet Sauvignon grapevines. The spectral and structural information, acquired at the various phenological stages of the vine through two seasons, is used to model kc using univariate (simple linear), multivariate (generalised linear and additive) and machine learning (convolution neural network and random forest) model frameworks. The structural information (e.g., canopy top view area) had the strongest correlation with kc throughout the season (p \u2264 0.001; Pearson R = 0.56), while the spectral indices (e.g., normalised indices) turned less-sensitive post v\u00e9raison\u2014the onset of ripening in grapes. Combining structural and spectral information improved the model\u2019s performance. Among the investigated predictive models, the random forest predicted kc with the highest accuracy (R2: 0.675, root mean square error: 0.062, and mean absolute error: 0.047). This UAV-based approach improves the precision of irrigation by capturing the spatial variability of kc within a vineyard. Combined with an energy balance model, the water needs of a vineyard can be computed on a weekly or sub-weekly basis for precision irrigation. The UAV-based characterisation of kc can further enhance the water management and irrigation zoning by matching the infrastructure with the spatial variability of the irrigation demand.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13132639","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,5]],"date-time":"2021-07-05T22:02:04Z","timestamp":1625522524000},"page":"2639","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["Estimation of Grapevine Crop Coefficient Using a Multispectral Camera on an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2852-4204","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Deepak","family":"Gautam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Agriculture, Food and Wine, The University of Adelaide, PMB 1, Glen Osmond, SA 5064, Australia"},{"name":"Research Institute for the Environment and Livelihoods, Charles Darwin University, Casuarina, NT 0810, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5868-3567","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bertram","family":"Ostendorf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Oliphant Building, North Terrace Campus, School of Biological Science, The University of Adelaide, Adelaide, SA 5005, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1916-2758","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vinay","family":"Pagay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Agriculture, Food and Wine, The University of Adelaide, PMB 1, Glen Osmond, SA 5064, Australia"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Ummenhofer, C.C., England, M.H., McIntosh, P.C., Meyers, G.A., Pook, M.J., Risbey, J.S., Gupta, A.S., and Taschetto, A.S.
