Multispectral Aerial Photography as Land Quality Indicator for Maize Growth in the Limagne Area M.A. MULDERS1 AND G. LHOMME2 1 Department of Soil Science and Geology, Agricultural University, Wageningen, The Netherlands 2 Ecole Nationale dIngenieurs des Travaux Agricoles (ENITA), Lempdes, Clermont Ferrand, France Abstract Multitemporal MSP (MultiSpectral aerial Photography), supplemented with field reflectance measurements, provides quantitative data on crop growth if expressed by a vegetation index, which is linearly related to the Leaf Area Index.
