Abstract

This research was carried out in an experimental vineyard grown in artificially transformed karst terrain (Croatia). The experimental design included four water treatments in three replicates: 1) fully watered or based on 100% evapotranspiration (ETc) application; 2) regulated deficit irrigation based on 75% and 50% ETc applications; and 3) non-watered. Hyperspectral images of grapevines were taken in the summer of 2016 using two spectral-radiance (W·sr−1·m−2) calibrated cameras, covering wavelengths from 409 to 988 nm and 950 to 2509 nm. The four treatments were grouped into two new sets: 1) drought (NO); and 2) watered (the remaining three treatments). The watered group was then split into two new sets: 1) 50% treatment; and 2) 75+100% treatment. The images were analyzed using Partial least squares – discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and Single Vector Machines (SVM). The PLS-DA demonstrated the capability to determine levels of grapevine drought or watered groups with 70 - 80% accuracy. A similar success rate was achieved in distinguishing the 50% group from the 75+100% group.
