Abstract
Crop rotation is subsidized by the government because of its many advantages. Monitoring whether crop rotation is beneficial for agricultural management, and can also provide a reference for government subsidy policies for crop rotation. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised object-oriented crop rotation detection method using time-series polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) data. On the one hand, we construct the change detection matrix based on the likelihood ratio test (LRT) distance to perform temporal filtering. Then, the pixel-level temporal change image is generated using Shannon entropy and maximum between-class variance (OTSU). On the other hand, we perform temporal segmentation on time-series PolSAR images to obtain superpixel results. Finally, the object-level crop rotation results are obtained with the probabilistic label relaxation (PLR) model. 42 Sentinel-1 dual-polarization SAR datasets during 2018 and 2019 are selected for detecting crop rotation changes on farms within Jinchang, China. Experimental results show that the crop rotation detection accuracy and <i>Kappa</i> coefficients of this method can reach 96.21% and 0.8989, respectively.
