Mapping distribution and coverage of land cover at broad spatiotemporal scales largely relies on classification of remotely sensed data. Although recently multi-source data fusion has been playing an increasingly active role in land cover classification, our intensive review of current studies shows that the integration of optical, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) observations has not been thoroughly evaluated. In this research, we bridged this gap by i) summarizing related fusion studies and assessing their reported accuracy improvements, and ii) conducting our own case study where for the first time fusion of optical, radar and waveform LiDAR observations and the associated improvements in classification accuracy are assessed using data collected by spaceborne or appropriately simulated platforms in the LiDAR case. Multitemporal Landsat-5/Thematic Mapper (TM) and Advanced Land Observing Satellite-1/ Phased Array type L-band SAR (ALOS-1/PALSAR) imagery acquired in the Central New York (CNY) region close to the collection of airborne waveform LVIS (Land, Vegetation, and Ice Sensor) data were examined. Classification was conducted using a random forest algorithm and different feature sets in terms of sensor and seasonality as input variables. Results indicate that the combined spectral, scattering and vertical structural information provided the maximum discriminative capability among different land cover types, giving rise to the highest overall accuracy of 83% (2–19% and 9–35% superior to the two-sensor and single-sensor scenarios with overall accuracies of 64–81% and 48–74%, respectively). Greater improvement was achieved when combining multitemporal Landsat images with LVIS-derived canopy height metrics as opposed to PALSAR features, suggesting that LVIS contributed more useful thematic information complementary to spectral data and beneficial to the classification task, especially for vegetation classes. With the Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI), a recently launched LiDAR instrument of similar properties to the LVIS sensor now operating onboard the International Space Station (ISS), it is our hope that this research will act as a literature summary and offer guidelines for further applications of multi-date and multi-type remotely sensed data fusion for improved land cover classification.

LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging), specifically NASA’s Laser Vegetation Imaging Sensor (LVIS), PALSAR (Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar), and Landsat data have been previously used in biomass estimation with promising results when used individually. In this manuscript, all three products are jointly utilized for the first time to assess their importance for deciduous biomass estimation. Results indicate that LVIS inputs are ranked as most important followed by PALSAR inputs. Particularly for PALSAR, scenes acquired in May and August were ranked higher compared to other months.

An accurate and computationally efficient algorithm for ground peak identification in large footprint waveform LiDAR data / Wei Zhuang in ISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, vol 95 (September 2014)  

Public [article]  inISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing > vol 95 (September 2014) . - pp 81 – 92 Titre : An accurate and computationally efficient algorithm for ground peak identification in large footprint waveform LiDAR data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Wei Zhuang, Auteur ; Giorgos Mountrakis, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : pp 81 – 92 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Lasergrammétrie [Termes IGN] empreinte [Termes IGN] filtrage numérique d'image [Termes IGN] forêt [Termes IGN] forme d'onde [Termes IGN] groupe [Termes IGN] identification automatique [Termes IGN] onde lidar [Termes IGN] surface du sol [Termes IGN] télémétrie laser aéroporté [Termes IGN] traitement de données Résumé : (Auteur) Large footprint waveform LiDAR sensors have been widely used for numerous airborne studies. Ground peak identification in a large footprint waveform is a significant bottleneck in exploring full usage of the waveform datasets. In the current study, an accurate and computationally efficient algorithm was developed for ground peak identification, called Filtering and Clustering Algorithm (FICA). The method was evaluated on Land, Vegetation, and Ice Sensor (LVIS) waveform datasets acquired over Central NY. FICA incorporates a set of multi-scale second derivative filters and a k-means clustering algorithm in order to avoid detecting false ground peaks. FICA was tested in five different land cover types (deciduous trees, coniferous trees, shrub, grass and developed area) and showed more accurate results when compared to existing algorithms. More specifically, compared with Gaussian decomposition, the RMSE ground peak identification by FICA was 2.82 m (5.29 m for GD) in deciduous plots, 3.25 m (4.57 m for GD) in coniferous plots, 2.63 m (2.83 m for GD) in shrub plots, 0.82 m (0.93 m for GD) in grass plots, and 0.70 m (0.51 m for GD) in plots of developed areas. FICA performance was also relatively consistent under various slope and canopy coverage (CC) conditions. In addition, FICA showed better computational efficiency compared to existing methods. FICA’s major computational and accuracy advantage is a result of the adopted multi-scale signal processing procedures that concentrate on local portions of the signal as opposed to the Gaussian decomposition that uses a curve-fitting strategy applied in the entire signal. The FICA algorithm is a good candidate for large-scale implementation on future space-borne waveform LiDAR sensors.

Assessing reference dataset representativeness through confidence metrics based on information density / Giorgos Mountrakis in ISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, vol 78 (April 2013)  

Public [article]  inISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing > vol 78 (April 2013) . - pp 129 - 147 Titre : Assessing reference dataset representativeness through confidence metrics based on information density Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Giorgos Mountrakis, Auteur ; Bo Xi, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : pp 129 - 147 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image [Termes IGN] analyse de sensibilité [Termes IGN] carte d'occupation du sol [Termes IGN] carte de confiance [Termes IGN] classification dirigée [Termes IGN] densité d'information [Termes IGN] données localisées de référence [Termes IGN] jeu de données localisées [Termes IGN] representativité Résumé : (Auteur) Land cover maps obtained from classification of remotely sensed imagery provide valuable information in numerous environmental monitoring and modeling tasks. However, many uncertainties and errors can directly or indirectly affect the quality of derived maps. This work focuses on one key aspect of the supervised classification process of remotely sensed imagery: the quality of the reference dataset used to develop a classifier. More specifically, the representative power of the reference dataset is assessed by contrasting it with the full dataset (e.g. entire image) needing classification. Our method is applicable in several ways: training or testing datasets (extracted from the reference dataset) can be compared with the full dataset. The proposed method moves beyond spatial sampling schemes (e.g. grid, cluster) and operates in the multidimensional feature space (e.g. spectral bands) and uses spatial statistics to compare information density of data to be classified with data used in the reference process. The working hypothesis is that higher information density, not in general but with respect to the entire classified image, expresses higher confidence in obtained results. Presented experiments establish a close link between confidence metrics and classification accuracy for a variety of image classifiers namely maximum likelihood, decision tree, Backpropagation Neural Network and Support Vector Machine. A sensitivity analysis demonstrates that spatially-continuous reference datasets (e.g. a square window) have the potential to provide similar classification confidence as typically-used spatially-random datasets. This is an important finding considering the higher acquisition costs for randomly distributed datasets. Furthermore, the method produces confidence maps that allow spatially-explicit comparison of confidence metrics within a given image for identification of over- and under-represented image portions. The current method is presented for individual image classification but, with sufficient evaluation from the remote sensing community it has the potential to become a standard for reference dataset reporting and thus allowing users to assess representativeness of reference datasets in a consistent manner across different classification tasks.
