Outils de caracterisation et zonage des paysages viticoles: application aux vignobles français

Abstract

[English version below]

Un paysage viticole est une relation entre des formes, dimension objective, et la perception que nous en avons, dimension subjective, émotionnelle. La viticulture n’est pas seulement productrice d’un vin, elle contribue également à façonner le paysage. Pourtant, jusqu’à présent, la connaissance des terroirs était principalement basée sur la caractérisation de leur aptitude à produire des vins de qualité.
Une méthodologie d’étude globale du paysage a été validée sur un site pilote champenois durant l’été 2003. Elle associait les acteurs du monde viticole et des collectivités territoriales au développement de la démarche paysagère locale. Elle liait l’étude sensible du paysage à la prise en compte du volet environnemental associé au terroir (ruissellement, érosion, biodiversité…).
L’élaboration de telles méthodologies nécessite la formalisation d’outil de caractérisation et de zonage des paysages viticoles.
Les principales données permettant de caractériser un paysage (cartographie, photos aériennes, données satellites, relevés de terrains bloc diagramme, données économiques …) sont décrites et présentées à partir de cas concrets.
Les principaux outils paysagers d’analyse et de communication, tels les sorties terrains ou un Système d’Information Géographique ont été étudiés.
Au final, l’objectif est de réaliser une « boîte à outils » permettant à différents niveaux d’échelle (national, régional, local) d’alimenter les démarches paysagères et environnementales, associées aux territoires viticoles.

Vineyard landscapes are a relationship between shapes which are objective and the perception that one has of them, which is subjective and emotional. Without this relationship, landscapes cannot exist. Vine farming does not only produce wine, it also contributes to design landscapes. Yet, so far, geographical specificities were essentially based on the characterisation of their ability to produce quality wine.
A comprehensive landscape study methodology was validated on a champagne pilot-site in summer 2003. It associated a sensitive landscape study to the environmental issues (runoff, erosion, biodiversity) and involved vine farmers and the district laborating such a methodology requires to formalise characterisation and zoning tools for vineyards landscapes.
The main landscape characterisation data are described and presented through case studies (cartography, air photographs, satellite data, site measures, economical data).
The main analysis and communication landscape tools, such as geographic information systems and onsite visits were studies. Finally, the aim is to create a tool box allowing vineyard landscape and environmental management on a local, regional and national scale.

Detection of spider mite using artificial intelligence in digital viticulture

Aim: Pests have a high impact on yield and grape quality in viticulture. An objective and rapid detection of pests under field conditions is needed. New sensing technologies and artificial intelligence could be used for pests detection in digital viticulture. The aim of this work was to apply computer vision and deep learning techniques for automatic detection of spider mite symptoms in grapevine under field conditions. 

Viticultural and enological strategies for the prevention of Botrytis cinerea- induced quality losses

Infection of the grapes with Botrytis cinerea has a tremendous impact on the resulting crop yield and quality. Well-known problems that are associated with B. cinerea are specific off-flavors, poor filterability, and brownish color in white wines. The development of a B. cinerea infection strongly depends on weather conditions and is highly variable through different vintages. Typical control measures include defoliation and the use of fungicides, which involves high personnel and material costs. They also involve a great risk, especially since the effectiveness and time point of these treatments are difficult to predict.

Defoliation timing impacts berry secondary metabolites and sunburn damage

Sunburn is a physiological disorder that leads to yield and quality losses in a range of fruits such as grapes and apples. It affects the visual appearance and the composition of the fruit, leading to irreversible changes and ultimately, cell death in extreme situations.

Sviluppo vegetativo del Nebbiolo nell’area di produzione del Barolo DOCG: influenza sulla qualita’ della produzione

Environment features and management operations on shoot and leaves modify the canopy during the vegetative season, changing the grapevine microclimate and the ratio between photo synthetic sources (the canopy) and productive sinks (the grapes).

Perception of Rose Oxide Enantiomers, Linalool and α-Terpineol to Gewürztraminer Wine Aroma

Monoterpenes are important aroma compounds in white wines. Many monoterpenes are chiral and the chiral forms have different aroma qualities.
