Moreover, organisations that can provide training for the operational use of such systems may find valuable growth prospects in servicing the needs of academic institutions and research facilities.

## Notice

As part of the plant phenotyping infrastructure in the Hounsfield Facility at Sutton Bonington, we wish to commission a canopy phenotyping system to complement our existing root phenotyping installation. Therefore this ITT is for the design, delivery and installation of an automated canopy phenotyping system to produce high-throughput 3-dimensional images of plant canopies with registered spectral information, with on-site training included.
