With the growing popularity of deep learning, deep learning-based approaches have shown great potential in LCZ mapping. Three major cities in China are selected as the study areas. In this study, we design a deep convolutional neural network architecture, named Residual combined Squeeze-and-Excitation and Non-local Network (RSNNet), that consists of the Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) block and non-local block to classify LCZ using freely available Sentinel-1 SAR and Sentinel-2 multispectral imagery. Overall Accuracy (OA) of 0.9202, 0.9524 and 0.9004 for three selected cities are obtained by applying RSNNet and training data of individual city, and OA of 0.9328 is obtained by training RSNNet with data from all three cities. RSNNet outperforms other popular Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) in terms of LCZ mapping accuracy. We further design a series of experiments to investigate the effect of different characteristics of Sentinel-1 SAR data on the performance of RSNNet in LCZ mapping. The results suggest that the combination of SAR and multispectral data can improve the accuracy of LCZ classification. The proposed RSNNet achieves an OA of 0.9425 when integrating the three decomposed components with Sentinel-2 multispectral images, 2.44% higher than using Sentinel-2 images alone.

DSNUNet: An improved forest change detection network by combining Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 images / Jiawei Jiang in Remote sensing, vol 14 n° 19 (October-1 2022)

With the development and implementation of deep learning algorithms in change detection, a large number of models have been designed to detect changes in multi-phase remote sensing images. Although synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data have strong potential for application in forest change detection tasks, most existing deep learning-based models have been designed for optical imagery. Therefore, to effectively combine optical and SAR data in forest change detection, this paper proposes a double Siamese branch-based change detection network called DSNUNet. DSNUNet uses two sets of feature branches to extract features from dual-phase optical and SAR images and employs shared weights to combine features into groups. In the proposed DSNUNet, different feature extraction branch widths were used to compensate for a difference in the amount of information between optical and SAR images. The proposed DSNUNet was validated by experiments on the manually annotated forest change detection dataset. According to the obtained results, the proposed method outperformed other change detection methods, achieving an F1-score of 76.40%. In addition, different combinations of width between feature extraction branches were analyzed in this study. The results revealed an optimal performance of the model at initial channel numbers of the optical imaging branch and SAR image branch of 32 and 8, respectively. The prediction results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method in accurately predicting forest changes and suppressing cloud interferences to some extent.

Towards a global seasonal and permanent reference water product from Sentinel-1/2 data for improved flood mapping / Sandro Martinis in Remote sensing of environment, vol 278 (September 2022)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing of environment > vol 278 (September 2022) . - n° 113077 Titre : Towards a global seasonal and permanent reference water product from Sentinel-1/2 data for improved flood mapping Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Sandro Martinis, Auteur ; Sandro Groth, Auteur ; Marc Wieland, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 113077 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image mixte [Termes IGN] Allemagne [Termes IGN] Australie [Termes IGN] carte thématique [Termes IGN] fusion d'images [Termes IGN] image radar moirée [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-MSI [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] Inde [Termes IGN] inondation [Termes IGN] Mozambique [Termes IGN] prévention des risques [Termes IGN] série temporelle [Termes IGN] Soudan [Termes IGN] surveillance hydrologique [Termes IGN] variation saisonnière [Termes IGN] zone à risque Résumé : (auteur) Satellite-based flood mapping has become an important part of disaster response. In order to accurately distinguish flood inundation from normally present conditions, up-to-date, high-resolution information on the seasonal water cover is crucial. This information is usually neglected in disaster management, which may result in a non-reliable representation of the flood extent, mainly in regions with highly dynamic hydrological conditions. In this study, we present a fully automated method to generate a global reference water product specifically designed for the use in global flood mapping applications based on high resolution Earth Observation data. The proposed methodology combines existing processing pipelines for flood detection based on Sentinel-1/2 data and aggregates permanent as well as seasonal water masks over an adjustable reference time period. The water masks are primarily based on the analysis of Sentinel-2 data and are complemented by Sentinel-1-based information in optical data scarce regions. First results are demonstrated in five selected study areas (Australia, Germany, India, Mozambique, and Sudan), distributed across different climate zones and are systematically compared with external products. Further, the proposed product is exemplary applied to three real flood events in order to evaluate the impact of the used reference water mask on the derived flood extent. Results show, that it is possible to generate a consistent reference water product at 10–20 m spatial resolution, that is more suitable for the use in rapid disaster response than previous masks. The proposed multi-sensor approach is capable of producing reasonable results, even if only few or no information from optical data is available. Further it becomes clear, that the consideration of seasonality of water bodies, especially in regions with highly dynamic hydrological and climatic conditions, reduces potential over-estimation of the inundation extent and gives a more reliable picture on flood-affected areas.

A dual-generator translation network fusing texture and structure features for SAR and optical image matching / Han Nie in Remote sensing, Vol 14 n° 12 (June-2 2022)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > Vol 14 n° 12 (June-2 2022) . - n° 2946 Titre : A dual-generator translation network fusing texture and structure features for SAR and optical image matching Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Han Nie, Auteur ; Zhitao Fu, Auteur ; Bo-Hui Tang, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 2946 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image mixte [Termes IGN] agrégation de détails [Termes IGN] appariement d'images [Termes IGN] fusion d'images [Termes IGN] image radar moirée [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-MSI [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] rapport signal sur bruit [Termes IGN] rift [Termes IGN] texture d'image Résumé : (auteur) The matching problem for heterologous remote sensing images can be simplified to the matching problem for pseudo homologous remote sensing images via image translation to improve the matching performance. Among such applications, the translation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and optical images is the current focus of research. However, the existing methods for SAR-to-optical translation have two main drawbacks. First, single generators usually sacrifice either structure or texture features to balance the model performance and complexity, which often results in textural or structural distortion; second, due to large nonlinear radiation distortions (NRDs) in SAR images, there are still visual differences between the pseudo-optical images generated by current generative adversarial networks (GANs) and real optical images. Therefore, we propose a dual-generator translation network for fusing structure and texture features. On the one hand, the proposed network has dual generators, a texture generator, and a structure generator, with good cross-coupling to obtain high-accuracy structure and texture features; on the other hand, frequency-domain and spatial-domain loss functions are introduced to reduce the differences between pseudo-optical images and real optical images. Extensive quantitative and qualitative experiments show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on publicly available optical and SAR datasets. Our method improves the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) by 21.0%, the chromatic feature similarity (FSIMc) by 6.9%, and the structural similarity (SSIM) by 161.7% in terms of the average metric values on all test images compared with the next best results. In addition, we present a before-and-after translation comparison experiment to show that our method improves the average keypoint repeatability by approximately 111.7% and the matching accuracy by approximately 5.25%.

Combination of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data for tree species classification in a Central European biosphere reserve / Michael Lechner in Remote sensing, vol 14 n° 11 (June-1 2022)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > vol 14 n° 11 (June-1 2022) . - n° 2687 Titre : Combination of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data for tree species classification in a Central European biosphere reserve Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Michael Lechner, Auteur ; Alena Dostalova, Auteur ; Markus Hollaus, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 2687 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image mixte [Termes IGN] analyse comparative [Termes IGN] analyse harmonique [Termes IGN] Autriche [Termes IGN] biosphère [Termes IGN] classification par forêts d'arbres décisionnels [Termes IGN] espèce végétale [Termes IGN] feuillu [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-MSI [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] nébulosité [Termes IGN] phénologie [Termes IGN] Pinophyta [Termes IGN] rapport signal sur bruit [Termes IGN] réserve forestière Résumé : (auteur) Microwave and optical imaging methods react differently to different land surface parameters and, thus, provide highly complementary information. However, the contribution of individual features from these two domains of the electromagnetic spectrum for tree species classification is still unclear. For large-scale forest assessments, it is moreover important to better understand the domain-specific limitations of the two sensor families, such as the impact of cloudiness and low signal-to-noise-ratio, respectively. In this study, seven deciduous and five coniferous tree species of the Austrian Biosphere Reserve Wienerwald (105,000 ha) were classified using Breiman’s random forest classifier, labeled with help of forest enterprise data. In nine test cases, variations of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery were passed to the classifier to evaluate their respective contributions. By solely using a high number of Sentinel-2 scenes well spread over the growing season, an overall accuracy of 83.2% was achieved. With ample Sentinel-2 scenes available, the additional use of Sentinel-1 data improved the results by 0.5 percentage points. This changed when only a single Sentinel-2 scene was supposedly available. In this case, the full set of Sentinel-1-derived features increased the overall accuracy on average by 4.7 percentage points. The same level of accuracy could be obtained using three Sentinel-2 scenes spread over the vegetation period. On the other hand, the sole use of Sentinel-1 including phenological indicators and additional features derived from the time series did not yield satisfactory overall classification accuracies (55.7%), as only coniferous species were well separated.
