edge conditions:� In agricultural row crop imagery, the biomass values for cells in the middle of a healthy row are high, while the thin plant fringes or bare soil between rows have low biomass values.� Low biomass values along the edges of healthy rows are normal and are no cause for concern.� But edges cannot be distinguished by value alone from the low biomass values of regions of insect or disease damage which must be identified and given special attention.
