Aerial images with high spatial resolution and high temporal resolution were used to detect water stress based on canopy level normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). We attempted to determine the correlation between stem water potential (SWP) and canopy NDVI with and without shade. Results indicated that removing the shade from the canopy improved the correlation between the NDVI of canopy and SWP with coefficient of determination (R2) from 0.001 to 0.0052. We further compared SWP and the NDVI of the canopy without shade over a period of one week to four weeks. The correlation between NDVI with SWP was highest in the time range of three weeks. However, both cases show that there is no obvious relationship between NDVI of canopy and SWP. Therefore, canopy level NDVI does not indicate water stress. Further research is needed beyond pretty pictures.
