Abstract: 
The problem of remote sensing estimation of vegetation chlorophyll content for condition monitoring by reflectance spectra is considered. We propose a way for the solution of the problem with the use of the principal components analysis method (PCA) and nonlinear regression models. A hardware-software complex is developed to realize the way. Some results of testing the complex and of its comparison with the first derivative method are presented.
Keywords: chlorophyll, monitoring, reflectance spectra
