                  Abstract
                      Methods of spectral-spatial analysis are promising for the identification of technological
                  stresses. The most common solution for interpreting the causes of stress is the use of machine
                  learning technologies, namely neural networks. As at technological stresses in particular at
                  chemical poisoning of crops, there can be various options of the coloring of the affected plants
                  the possibility of providing a sufficient amount of initial data for training of neural networks is
                  doubtful. An alternative is graph analysis of the distribution of stress areas on the field map.
                  Given the urgency of the problem for promising technologies of precision agriculture, the work
                  aimed to develop a spectral-spatial method of monitoring technological stresses, namely the
                  algorithm and software for its.
                      Experimental studies of the manifestation of technological stresses on winter crops on the
                  example of wheat and rapeseed were conducted during 2018-2020 in production fields using
                  universal cameras in the visible range and special multispectral Slantrange systems.
                  For remote monitor, the state of winter crops, an algorithm for identifying technological stresses
                  was developed, which is implemented in the developed software in Python for spectral-spatial
                  analysis of stress index maps. It has been experimentally confirmed in the production fields that
                  the use of the developed software allows identifying the contours of areas of plants with stresses
                  of technological nature based on stress index distribution maps.
