Spectrum FieldScout GreenIndex+ Nitrogen App and Board
- Captures and processes images from an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad and instantly computes the DGCI (Dark Green Color Index) of user leaves.
- Sensitive to low nitrogen levels in the leaves.
- DGCI has been correlated to SPAD readings in corn at the V6 growth stage.
- This computed SPAD index is displayed by GreenIndex+.
- Nitrogen uptake increases dramatically at the beginning of the V6 development stage.
- Corrective measures, based on early diagnosis of severe nitrogen deficiencies, can prevent yield reduction.
- Digital images taken in the field typically exhibit variation due to ambient lighting, shadows and texture.
- Green and yellow reference standards on a pink background provide contrast and aid the imaging processing software.
- Spectrum FieldScout GreenIndex+ Nitrogen App and Board allows for images to be captured under a broad range of lighting conditions.
- Offers digital image analysis of leaves, providing growers with an accurate, low-cost method for managing in-season fertility and helps you deliver improved yield, lower nitrogen costs, and increased profits.
- All data is logged and geo-referenced, and can be emailed to user PC for further analysis.
- Patent pending.
- iOS Device not included.
- Android version coming soon.
