Spatial characterization of land use in the viticultural Maipo Valley (Chile), using aster image digital processing

Abstract

[English version below]

L’entreprise viticole Concha y Toro S.A. gère environ 600 ha de vignes dans la Vallée du Maipo (A.O. Valle del Maipo). L’objectif est celui de caractériser spatialement ces vignobles et leur occupation du sol environnante. Le choix s’est porté vers la démarche de zonage viticole par l’analyse spatiale, utilisant des traitements d’images satellitaires afin d’avoir une vision synoptique de la zone à moindres coûts et délais. Un système d’informations géographiques (SIG) est construit à partir des données suivantes : cartes topographiques, géologique, fond cadastral numérique, images satellitaires. Un modèle numérique de terrain est par ailleurs construit à une résolution de 25 m à partir des cartes topographiques. Deux images Aster (résolution de 15 m) prises au mois d’octobre 2000 et janvier 2001 ont été choisies. Une cartographie de l’occupation du sol a été effectuée sur l’image satellitaire de janvier nous permettant par ailleurs d’actualiser les cartes topographiques datant de 1974, en raison notamment de l’expansion urbaine de la ville de Santiago en périphérie des vignes. Par ailleurs, l’étude diachronique mise en œuvre conduit à analyser les comportements spectraux des vignes et des sols et leur évolution spectrale entre les deux dates retenues.

Concha y Toro S.A. wine enterprise controls about 600 hectares of vineyards in the Maipo Valley (A.O. Valle del Maipo). Our purpose is to carry out a spatial characterization of vineyards and their surrounding land use, based on spatial analysis and using satellite image processing which enables to get a broad synoptic vision of the area at low cost. A geographic information system (GIS) is built with the following data: topographic maps, geological maps, digital cadastral database and satellite images. A digital elevation model (DEM) is made from the topographic maps at a 25 meters-resolution. Two high resolutions Aster images (15 meters) captured in October 2000 and January 2001 were chosen. Land use is spatially characterized using the January image. It enables us to update the land use cover extracted from the topographic maps and dating 1974, especially because of the urban sprawl of the city of Santiago amongst vines. More, the image diachronic study leads to analyze the spectral behavior of vine and soil and its evolution from January to February 2001.

Grapegrowing soils

The soil plays a key role in viticulture since it defines the planting depth, development and aeration of the root system and also controls the absorption of mineral elements and water conditions of the plant

Evaluation of shelf life of white wines in aluminium bottle: a modelling approach

Aluminum is a particularly interesting material for packaging because it is environmentally sustainable, lighter than standard glass bottles, and protective against light radiation [1].

Influence of inactive dry yeast treatments during grape ripening on postharvest berry skin texture parameters and phenolic compounds extractability

Inactive dry yeast treatments in the vineyard are a tool used with the aim to improve the concentration and quality of secondary metabolites in grapes, leading to a better differentiation of the wines made from grapes differently treated. In this work, a foliar spraying treatment with yeast derivatives specifically designed to be used with the patent pending application technology of Lallemand Inc. Canada (LalVigne® Mature, Lallemand Inc., Montreal, Canada) was tested on Vitis vinifera L. cv. Barbera and Nebbiolo black winegrapes. The aim was to evaluate the effect of this treatment on the phenolic compounds accumulation, the skin physical-mechanical properties and the related phenolic extractability. Prior to analysis, the berries were sorted by flotation in order to evaluate their distribution by density class, and to determine the skin texture parameters of berries with different sugar contents, thus understanding also the ripening effect.

Investigation of the biostimulant activity of naringenin on anthocyanins biosynthesis: from an explanatory transcriptomic approach on Gamay callus towards a future vineyard application

Context and purpose of the study. Anthocyanins are essential phenolic compounds in red wine, contributing significantly to colour intensity, stability, and sensory quality.

Evolution of acetaldehyde concentration during wine alcoholic fermentation: online monitoring for production balances

During alcoholic fermentation, acetaldehyde is the carbonyl compound quantitatively the most produced by yeasts after ethanol. The dynamics of acetaldehyde production can be divided into 3 phases. Early formation of this compound is observed during the lag phase at the beginning of fermentation before any detectable growth [1].
