Use of hyperspectral data for assessing vineyard biophysical and quality parameters in northern Italy

Abstract

A total of 39 study sites from 11 commercial vineyards located in two traditional growing areas of Northern Italy were identified for airborne hyperspectral acquisition in summer 2009 with the Aisa-EAGLE Airborne Hyperspectral Imaging Sensor. Field sampling campaigns were conducted during the airborne overflights and around harvest, collecting canopy structural parameters, leaf and canopy biophysical characteristics as well as spectral signatures and must quality traits. Several vegetation indices were calculated from each plot to relate variations in canopy structure and foliar pigment concentration to vine status and grape quality parameters. The up-scaling model through TCARI/OSAVI index allowed to yield acceptable estimates of leaf chlorophyll content. However model refinements are needed to improve its capacity to taking into account understory grass cover at the highest instrument resolution.

Bioprotective effect of a Torulaspora delbrueckii/Lachancea thermotolerans mixed inoculum and its impact on wines made.

SO2 is an additive widely used as antimicrobial in winemaking industry. However, this compound can negatively affect health, so the search for alternatives is currently a line of research of great interest. One of the proposed alternatives to SO2 as an antimicrobial is the use of bioprotection yeasts, which colonize the medium preventing the proliferation of undesirable microorganisms.
