Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: Spatially distributed data were obtained for a field planted to cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in 1998. Six types of data (yield map, mid-season infrared imagery, soil water-holding capacity map, soil texture map, soil electrical conductivity map, and soil color imagery) are compared. Potential information content of each is examined, and their utility in precision farming applications is discussed.
