| 7 | Towards long-multitemporal change detection using SVI differencing by integrated DWT ISOCLUS: a model for forest temporal dynamics mapping显示文摘Characterisation and mapping of land cover/land use within forest areas over long-multitemporal intervals is a complex task.This complexity is mainly due to the location and extent of such areas and,as a consequence,to the lack of full continuous cloud-free coverage of those large regions by one single remote sensing instrument.In order to provide improved long-multitemporal forest change detection using Landsat MSS and ETMin part of Mt.Kenya rainforest,and to develop a model for forest change monitoring,wavelet transforms analysis was tested against the ISOCLUS algorithm for the derivation of changes in natural forest cover,as determined using four simple ratio-based Vegetation Indices:Simple Ratio(SR),Normalised Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI),Renormalised Difference Vegetation Index(RDVI)and modified simple ratio(MSR).Based on statistical and empirical accuracy assessments,RDVI presented the optimal index for the case study.The overall accuracy statistic of the wavelet derived change/no-change was used to rank the performances of the indices as:RDVI(91.68%),MSR(82.55%),NDVI(79.73%)and SR(65.34%).The integrated discrete wavelet transformISOCLUS(DWTISOCLUS)result was 42.65%higher than the independent ISOCLUS approach in mapping the change/no-change information.The methodology suggested in this study presents a cost-effective and practical method to detect land-cover changes in support of decision-making for updating forest databases,and for long-term monitoring of vegetation changes from multisensor imagery.The current research contributes to Digital Earth with regards to geo-data acquisition,data mining and representation of one forest systems. | Yashon O.Oumaa Ryutaro Tateishi | 2011 | International Journal of Digital Earth2011，4，2： | 0 |
