Description
Summary:The rice fields in high resolution remote sensing images present mixed information constituted by distinct ground objects such as rice, soil, water, weed, duckweed and so on. Thus a novel approach for mapping of rice cropping areas based on sample knowledge mining was brought up according to spatial autocorrelation theory, which took advantage of the spectra combinational regularity. The accompanying mapping strategy was formulated based on this method. First, we segmented the high resolution remote sensing image into spectrally homogeneous base-units that represented distinct mixture information of several ground objects by grouping adjacent pixels with similar spectra. Second, we constructed a set of rice base-unit types through analysis of the base-unit types that contain rice field samples, and combine all the base-unit whose type belonged to this set to form initial rice cropping region. Finally, we vectorized the initial rice cropping region to initial rice cropping polygons, and then removed the polygons incompatible with spectra combinational regularity of rice fields through similarity analysis of combined feature of base-units between the rice cropping polygons and the rice field sample polygons. The overall accuracy of experimental rice cropping areas mapping results was over 96%. The successful application of this novel approach proves its efficiency and indicates its great potential for further utilization.
