Evaluating UAV Multispectral Imagery, Machine Learning and Image Analysis Techniques for Mapping Taro and Sweet Potato in a Smallholder Cropland in Swayimane, South Africa
Accurate mapping of neglected and underutilised crop species (NUS) in complex smallholder fields is critical for enhancing food security, yet it remains a significant challenge due to landscape heterogeneity, spectral similarities between crops and the spatial complexity of strip intercropping systems. This study evaluates the efficacy of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) multispectral imagery for mapping taro and sweet potato, addressing the limitat…
Assessment of a Ground-Based Lightning Detection and Near-Real-Time Warning System in the Rural Community of Swayimane, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
Climate change projections of increases in lightning activity are an added concern for lightning-prone countries such as South Africa. South Africa’s high levels of poverty, lack of education, and awareness, as well as a poorly developed infrastructure, increase the vulnerability of rural communities to the threat of lightning. Despite the existence of national lightning networks, lightning alerts and warnings are not disseminated well to such ru…
Integration of a Ground-Based Lightning Warning System into a Mining Operation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Central Africa is a global lightning hot spot, with the tropical areas including the top 10 highest lightning-flash-rate densities in the world. There are no lightning-locating-system networks available across most of Africa, however, and it becomes necessary to make use of real-time, ground-based lightning early warning systems. Such a system was established in the southern Congo basin at the Kinsevere copper mine and has been operational since …
