Using multyparticle Kalman filter for procedure of parameterization and adaptation PROSAIL vegetation model for
remote hyperspectral sensing data processing of cereal crops seeds and estimation of leaf area index (LAI) is investigated.
PROSAIL model which allows to calculate emitted seeds radiation in 0.4-2.5 μ range is function of 18 parameters
(dimensions, leaf orientation, soil structure, intensity of illumination and so on). It was shown that multyparticle
Kalman filter can do without that function derivatives (to operate in nonlinear vector mode). In such computation
up to 4 fitting model parameters are used. As the results of such computations averaged prediction accuracy
of cereal crops seeds spectra amounts to 2% and absolute LAI precision estimation is equal approximately 0.2.
