A method of detecting a potato virus in a crop image depicting at least one potato plant includes storing the crop image in a memory, identifying a first region of the crop image depicting potato plant leaves, identifying a plurality of edges within the first region, determining whether an image segment of the crop image within the first region satisfies one or more leaf creasing criteria symptomatic of leaf creasing caused by the virus based on the edges that are located within the image segment, determining whether the image segment satisfies one or more color criteria symptomatic of discoloration caused by the virus, and determining whether the segment displays symptoms of potato virus based on whether the image segment satisfies one or more of the leaf creasing criteria and the color criteria. A system and computer readable medium are also disclosed.

A system and method for implementing a landscaping project on a plot of land. The system creates a flexible landscaping template that is physically placed over the land that is to be landscaped. The flexible landscaping template has graphics printed on its surface that identify a variety of plants, indicate planting positions, and identify a variety of soil conditioning products the plants. The graphics on the flexible landscaping template can also indicate the placement of water management conduits and electrical conduits, the placement of hardscaping products and/or the placement of construction foundations. The flexible landscaping template is generated using input from a user and environmental criteria for the land to be landscaped. Once the flexible landscaping template is generated, the materials identified on the flexible landscaping template are gathered into a shipping module by a supplier company.

Disclosed herein is a plant disease and pest control method using aerial photography and spectral remote sensing technology to record and analyze crop orthographic images. After building meshes from a dense point cloud or 3D depth map, orthographic images are generated. Then, the numbers of crop pest insect, crop leaf infestation area, and the ratio between leaf and its farmland area are calculated using deep learning techniques. After that, the growth curve of the pest population is established via modeling techniques and a pest and disease prediction model is established to determine the optimized timing for pesticide spraying.

Systems and methods of restoring a lake including dredging, island creation, water treatment, real estate development, computer modeling of environmental conditions, wave height reduction, sediment removal and encapsulation, bathymetry contouring, littoral zone restoration, plant restoration, and/or fish restoration.
