Evaluating low-cost portable near infrared sensors for rapid analysis of soils from South Eastern Australia

This study demonstrates that Neospectra spectrometer can be successfully used for forest topsoil properties prediction.

Models based on spectral data obtained with NeoSpectra can compete with models built with data from full-range spectrometer when combining visual (340–850 nm) and NIR (1350–2550 nm) range data.
