 This study demonstrated that UAV hyperspectral technology can be used to accurately map soil organic matter, SOM, at a 1M resolution in typical lower-leaf black soil areas of northeast China. The study found that the UAV hyperspectral technology can provide accurate predictions of SOM when a small number of samples are used. Furthermore, the study showed that the UAV hyperspectral technology can provide both spectral and spatial information simultaneously, making it more efficient than other methods such as proximal sensing.
