Hyperspectral images of plots, cropped with silage or grain corn and cultivated with conventional tillage, reduced tillage, or no till, were classified using the classification and regression tree (C&RT) approach, an innovative intelligent computational algorithm in data mining. Each tillage/cropping combination was replicated three times, for a total of 18 plots. Five hyperspectral reflectance measurements per plot were taken randomly to obtain a total of 90 measurements. Images were taken on June 30, August 5, and August 25, 2000 to reflect three stages of crop development. Each measurement consisted of reflectances in 71 wave bands ranging from 400 to 950 nm. C&RT models were developed separately for the three observation dates, using the 71 reflectances as inputs to classify the image according to: (a) tillage practice, (b) residue level, (c) cropping practices, (d) tillage/cropping (residue) combination. C&RT models could generally distinguish tillage practices with a classification accuracy of 0.89 and residue levels with a classification accuracy of 0.98.
