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.

Determination of the maturity status of white grape berries (Vitis vinifera L. cv Chenin) through physical measurements

La véraison, stade intermédiaire du développement de la baie de raisin, correspond au début de la maturation. Aux modifications de coloration de la pellicule sont associées une perte de fermeté, une diminution de l’acidité et une augmentation des teneurs en sucres et pigments ainsi que du volume de la baie. Le stade de véraison des cépages blancs reste difficile à apprécier visuellement. Son évaluation par palpation est subjective et donc sujette à caution.

Evaluation of winegrape anthocyanins in the vineyard using a portable fluorimetric sensor: seasonal and water regime effects

Accumulation of anthocyanins (Anth) on whole winegrape (Vitis vinifera L.) bunches attached to the vine was monitored by a fluorescence-based sensor (Multiplex) on ‘Aleatico’ and ‘Nero d’Avola’. Different water regimes were applied.

Le zonage viticole en Italie. État actuel et perspectives futures

Over the past few decades, viticultural research has made numerous contributions which have made it possible to better understand the behavior of the vine as well as its response to the conditions imposed on it by the environment and agronomic practices. However, these results have only rarely been used in the practical management of vineyards because the research has been carried out using partial experimental models where reality is only represented by a few factors which are sometimes even made more complex by the introduction of elements foreign to the existing situation and difficult to apply to production (varieties, methods of cultivation, management techniques, etc.). To these reasons, one could add a low popularization of the results obtained, as well as the difficulty of implementing the scientific contributions, which does not allow the different production systems to fully express their potential. This limit of viticultural research can only be exceeded by the design of integrated projects designed directly on and for the territory. Indeed, only the integrated evaluation of a viticultural agro-system, which can be achieved through zoning, makes it possible to measure, or even attribute to each element of the system, the weight it exerts on the quality of the wine.

Manipulating grapevine bud fruitfulness

Bud fruitfulness is a key component of reproductive performance of grapevine. It plays a significant role in annual yield variation of vineyards as it is a prerequisite of crop production in the following season. Various exogenous and endogenous factors influencing the development of inflorescence primordia (IP) have been studied. However, the research on molecular genetic control of bud fruitfulness, especially how it interacts with environmental factors is still lacking. This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism of effects of temperature and light on grapevine bud fruitfulness during initiation and differentiation of IP.
