Abstract

See full text

A vegetation detector 10 includes a first imaging section 11, a second imaging section 12, a reflectance ratio calculating section 13, a determining section 14 and a recording section 15. The first imaging section 11 images light with a predetermined wavelength band of near infrared light. The second imaging section 12 images light with a water absorption wavelength band in short wave infrared light. The reflectance ratio calculating section 13 calculates a ratio of the reflectance of light with the near infrared light wavelength band to the light reflectance of light with the water absorption wavelength band as a reflectance ratio. The determining section 14 determines whether observed subjects are vegetations or not by comparing the reflectance ratio calculated by the reflectance ratio calculating section 13 with a threshold value recorded in the recording section 15.
