Abstract
ABSTRACT Quickly and accurately obtaining information on rice planting areas is crucial for maintaining food security and social stability. Based on the time series of Sentinel-1A images, this study proposes an automatic rice mapping method called the Dynamic Threshold Time-Weighted Dynamic Time Warping method (DT-TWDTW). This method consists of two parts. First, rice samples are extracted automatically by a dynamic threshold method based on the unique flooding signal before and after rice transplanting. Then, the Time-Weighted Dynamic Time Warping (TWDTW) method is used for rice mapping based on the cumulative cost matrix between unknown pixels and rice samples. The results show that the DT-TWDTW method can achieve satisfactory mapping accuracy with an overall accuracy of 94.6%, higher than random forest (89.9%), and support vector machine (91.7%). This study provides a new approach and perspective for remote sensing monitoring of rice, especially for some regions without prior phenological knowledge and collection of the rice samples.
