This fact necessitates an essential demand for evaluating and classifying the soil according to its agricultural productivity for different crops. This research aimed to evaluate lands which proposed to use in the agricultural field in the south of Al-Dabaa Corridor based on remote sensed data and GIS techniques. Moreover, the future optimum agricultural use planning will be projected based on the land assessments in the study area. Land suitability was evaluated using ALES-arid software for six crops. It was found that 74% of the study area was suitable for one fruit crop, date palm, and about 77.3% for one crop, alfalfa, and also suitable for one vegetable crop, tomato, by 77.1%. Furthermore, it was found that the study area was moderately suitable for other two crops, faba bean and maize (72.7 and 67.8%), and one fruit crop, citrus (70.1%). On the other hand, it was found that the characteristics that most affected the suitability class of fruit crops were soil salinity, soil depth, ESP, slope, and coarse texture. Finally, the study area should go under major reclamation process (removal of the excess salts and improvement of the drainage conditions) in order to obtain the highest production.

In this study, we investigated the benefit of combining airborne (laser scanning, image-based point clouds) and satellite-based (Sentinel 1 and 2) data for habitat classification. We used a two level random forest 10-fold leave-location-out cross-validation workflow to model Natura 2000 forest and grassland habitat types on a 10 m pixel scale at two study sites in Vienna, Austria. We showed that models using combined airborne and satellite-based remote sensing data perform significantly better for forests than airborne or satellite-based data alone. For frequently occurring classes, we reached class accuracies with F1-scores from 0.60 to 0.87. We identified clear difficulties of correctly assigning rare classes with model-based classification. Finally, we demonstrated the potential of the workflow to identify errors in reference data and point to the opportunities for integration in habitat mapping and monitoring.

Remote sensing techniques for water management and climate change monitoring in drought areas: case studies in Egypt and Tunisia / Lifan Ji in European journal of remote sensing, vol 56 n° 1 (2023)  

Public [article]  inEuropean journal of remote sensing > vol 56 n° 1 (2023) . - pp 1 - 16 Titre : Remote sensing techniques for water management and climate change monitoring in drought areas: case studies in Egypt and Tunisia Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Lifan Ji, Auteur ; Yihao Shao, Auteur ; Jianjun Liu, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : pp 1 - 16 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes IGN] analyse diachronique [Termes IGN] changement climatique [Termes IGN] Egypte [Termes IGN] gestion de l'eau [Termes IGN] humidité du sol [Termes IGN] image optique [Termes IGN] image radar moirée [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] indice de végétation [Termes IGN] réseau neuronal artificiel [Termes IGN] stress hydrique [Termes IGN] Tunisie [Termes IGN] zone semi-aride Résumé : (auteur) This study focused on monitoring the water status of vegetation and soil by exploiting the synergy of optical and microwave satellite data with the aim of improving the knowledge of water cycle in cultivated lands in Egyptian Delta and Tunisian areas. Environmental analysis approaches based on optical and synthetic aperture radar data were carried out to set up the basis for future implementation of practical and cost-effective methods for sustainable water use in agriculture. Long-term behaviors of vegetation indices were thus analyzed between 2000 and 2018. By using SAR data from Sentinel-1, an Artificial Neural Network-based algorithm was implemented for estimating soil moisture and monthly maps for 2018 have been generated to be compared with information derived from optical indices. Moreover, a novel drought severity index was developed and applied to available data. The index was obtained by combining vegetation soil difference index, derived from optical data, and soil moisture content derived from SAR data. The proposed index was found capable of complementing optical and microwave sensitivity to drought-related parameters, although ground data are missing for correctly validating the results, by capturing drought patterns and their temporal evolution better than indices based only on microwave or optical data.

Tree species classification in a typical natural secondary forest using UAV-borne LiDAR and hyperspectral data / Ying Quan in GIScience and remote sensing, vol 60 n° 1 (2023)  

Public [article]  inGIScience and remote sensing > vol 60 n° 1 (2023) . - n° 2171706 Titre : Tree species classification in a typical natural secondary forest using UAV-borne LiDAR and hyperspectral data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Ying Quan, Auteur ; Mingze Li, Auteur ; Yuanshuo Hao, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : n° 2171706 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications photogrammétriques [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] classification par forêts d'arbres décisionnels [Termes IGN] données lidar [Termes IGN] espèce végétale [Termes IGN] extraction de traits caractéristiques [Termes IGN] forêt secondaire [Termes IGN] image captée par drone [Termes IGN] image hyperspectrale [Termes IGN] modèle numérique de surface de la canopée [Termes IGN] semis de points Résumé : (auteur) Recent growth in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology have promoted the detailed mapping of individual tree species. However, the in-depth mining and comprehending of the significance of features derived from high-resolution UAV data for tree species discrimination remains a difficult task. In this study, a state-of-the-art approach combining UAV-borne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) and hyperspectral was used to classify 11 common tree species in a typical natural secondary forest in Northeast China. First, comprehensive relevant structural and spectral features were extracted. Then, the most valuable feature sets were selected by using a hybrid approach combining correlation-based feature selection with the optimized recursive feature elimination algorithm. The random forest algorithm was used to assess feature importance and perform the classification. Finally, the robustness of features derived from point clouds with different structures and hyperspectral images with different spatial resolutions was tested. Our results showed that the best classification accuracy was obtained by combining LiDAR and hyperspectral data (75.7%) compared to that based on LiDAR (60.0%) and hyperspectral (64.8%) data alone. The mean intensity of single returns and the visible atmospherically resistant index for red-edge band were the most influential LiDAR and hyperspectral derived features, respectively. The selected features were robust in point clouds with a density not lower than 5% (~5 pts/m2) and a resolution not lower than 0.3 m in hyperspectral data. Although canopy surface features were slightly different from original LiDAR features, canopy surface information was also important for tree species classification. This study proved the capabilities of UAV-borne LiDAR and hyperspectral data in natural secondary forest tree species discrimination and the potential for this approach to be transferable to other study areas.

Urban infrastructure expansion and artificial light pollution degrade coastal ecosystems, increasing natural-to-urban structural connectivity / Moisés A. Aguilera in Landscape and Urban Planning, vol 229 (January 2023)

Remnant habitats in urban areas can be especially prone to degradation by human activities at short time scales, and poor planning during urban expansion can erode their structural and functional connectivity. Foredunes in particular are threatened significantly by human activities, including coastal urban infrastructure expansion, by bulldozing them and/or by interrupting their continuity across the shoreline, and also by associated light pollution. However, there is still scarce quantification about how urban processes determine changes in remnant habitat extent and modify the configuration of structural connectivity in coastal urban settings. Using an expanding conurbation located in north-central Chile (∼29°S) as model system, we investigated the rate of coastal foredune loss and spatial fragmentation due to urban expansion, and the change in the type of structural connectivity, i.e. with other natural habitats vs with urban infrastructure. Based on map analyses of structural connectivity among habitats and with urban infrastructure through time, we estimated foredune habitat extent and fragmentation and their shared border with other habitats and built infrastructure during two time intervals, 2010–2015 and 2015–2020. Distribution and intensity of light pollution on present foredunes were also quantified in situ through field sampling. We found 36 % decline in foredune area and increase in their connection with urban infrastructure. Urban wetlands and parallel dunes also experienced persistent area loss and increase in connection with urban infrastructure. Light pollution was intense in the foredune-beach ecotone. Given the rapid erosion of functional and structural connectivity of natural habitats, it becomes imperious to halt the reduction of remnant habitats and ecotones, and improve natural corridors in urban settings.
