N2 - Regional crop yield prediction methods can be enhanced by the use of remote sensing based inputs to obtain an efficient and timely prediction capability. Inputs from remote sensing usually include vegetation indices and climatic information such as temperature, precipitation, solar radiation etc. The crop selected for this study is soybean. This study focuses on investigating and comparing a combination of satellite sensor characteristics and data products derived from satellite data stream inputs, with crop modeling input data requirements. The factors to be considered include the spatial, spectral and temporal characteristics of sensor characteristics and derived data products to determine objective methods for selecting model inputs that offer the most promise to improve regional soybean yield prediction.
