Long-term monitoring of citrus orchard dynamics using time-series Landsat data: a case study in southern China
2018
ABSTRACTCitrus orchard planting is a typical land-use change process that can impact terrestrial ecosystem services both locally and globally. Long-term monitoring of citrus orchard dynamics is critical for understanding its change patterns as well as the potential driving factors. Satellite remote-sensing imagery has been a primary data source for this purpose. However, most previous studies with multi-year intervals only captured some, but not all detailed information on citrus orchard expansion. In this study, we developed a framework for mapping annual citrus orchard extent and track its long-term dynamics in Xunwu County, China, using the historical Landsat repository from 1990 to 2016. The results suggested that the average overall accuracy of original annual mapping was 87.73%, and its performance was significantly improved after the temporal filtering approach (91.46%). Several features (e.g. elevation, slope, normalized difference vegetation index) played more important roles in citrus orchard id...
