Weed Segmentation in Soybean Fields and Variable-Rate Herbicide Prescription Map Generation Based on UAV Imagery and Improved YOLOv11-seg Model

The main contribution of this study lies in establishing a complete and practical end-to-end engineering workflow, spanning from accurate UAV image recognition to the generation of variable-rate application prescription maps. By integrating with the ArcGIS Pro platform, this solution achieves a fully automated pipeline from perception to decision-making, offering reliable technical support for intelligent weed control during the seedling stage in precision agriculture.

Abstract

The main contribution of this study lies in establishing a complete and practical end-to-end engineering workflow, spanning from accurate UAV image recognition to the generation of variable-rate application prescription maps. By integrating with the ArcGIS Pro platform, this solution achieves a fully automated pipeline from perception to decision-making, offering reliable technical support for intelligent weed control during the seedling stage in precision agriculture.
