| ABSTRACT The reflectance values of a coffee crop are influenced by several factors such as planting direction, crop spacing, time of the year, plant age and topography which reduces the accuracy of the estimates derived from remote sensing data. In this context were evaluated the relationships between coffee productivity and values of NDVI, SAVI and NDWI vegetation indexes with and without topographic reflectance correction for different coffee phenological phases for the crop years 2013/2014 (low productivity) and 2014/2015 (high productivity). The evaluations were made through the standard deviation of vegetation indices (VIs), linear relationship between the cosine factor and the VIs and between VIs and coffee productivity. The best phenological phases... |
