UAV image and ground data of citrus 'Bingo' mandarin hybrid (<i>Citrus </i>reticulata, Blanco) rootstock trial

The data are UAV ( (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)   and individual tree ground measurements collected in 2021 of 206 trees that were part of a citrus rootstock trial at the U.S. Horticultural Research Laboratory Picos Road farm site, Ft. Pierce, Florida, USA located at 27.437137958441877, -80.42670096728109. The trees were the Bingo mandarin hybrid scion grafted onto 14 rootstock varieties and were planted in the field in 2018. The UAV images were taken using a DJI Phantom 4 Pro drone flown at an altitude of 46 meters, a speed of 12 kph, and flight lines with 80% side-overlap and 70% forward-overlap. The images are suitable for orthorectification. The images were red-green-blue (sRGB) in a 3:2 format with 5472 x 3648 pixels. The data includes 46 UAV images, a spreadsheet that includes the planting plan and ground measures, and a composite image constructed from the 46 UAV images with the rows and tree numbers labeled. The images are numbered in the order they were taken during the flight. The composite image is useful for general orientation and matching the individual trees to the ground data and other post-processing image analyses.
