About
Dr Sahoo has many multidisciplinary and multi-institutional collaborative national and international research projects on remote sensing research programs as PI or Co-PI with total funding of INR 105 crores over last 19 years. His major accomplishments in applications of remote sensing and GIS in agriculture includes monitoring biotic and abiotic stresses for assessing crop conditions, Remote Sensing based drought monitoring and early warning, quantitative assessment of soil attributes for fertility and quality assessment and modeling for site specific nutrient requirement, precision agriculture, image and spectral based high throughput plant phenotyping, targeting resource conserving technologies and technologies to reduce agricultural fallow lands through biophysical monitoring and identifying production constraints of marginal lands, land use cover change modelling.
His major research interest is Hyperspectral Remote Sensing for soil and crop health monitoring for precision farming and plant phenomics, UAV remote sensing
