An auto-tuning process-based 3D model to forecast irrigation demand in kiwifruit by Marco Bittelli, Matteo Francia, Joseph Giovanelli, Matteo Golfarelli, Fausto Tomei

“…Although process-based models are largely used in off-line simulation and studies, their operational use in forecasting the irrigation requirements of a specific crop remains complex and the level of accuracy achieved is often insufficient since, if used alone, process-based simulation systems fail to capture the soil and plant dynamic behaviors. To overcome these limitations we propose an integrated system coupling Orchard3D-Lab, an innovative three-dimensional process-based model specifically devised for fruit trees, with a state initialization procedure that exploits a two-dimensional probe grid. …”
