Hi Blaine,

If you could post an example image, I'd be happy to see if the Pattern Mapping tool in our new MIPAR software (http://MIPAR.us) could help you. I think it might!

Cheers,

John

The very first steps:

Find out how the 'crop damage' manifests in the images.

Describe these manifestations in a mathematical way - some sort of 'recipe'.

And then ?

3. Implement these mathematical descriptions.

Lior Shamir

It's hard to tell without seeing examples of the images, but color or texture analysis can probably do the trick. You can train a machine learning algorithm using some samples of damaged and undamaged crops. Once you have these samples, the rest should be rather easy.

Here is a sample of one of the aerial images. You can see the wind damage on this corn.
