Remote sensing and GIS technology for tea plantation and yield in Cameron Highlands / Noor Azira Mohd Azman

Remote sensing and GIS technologies have been efficiently used for monitoring several annual crops like rice, wheat, etc. Therefore, developing an approach for monitoring tea plantations using remote sensing and GIS has become a pressing need. The lack of previous studies in monitoring tea using rem...
