Abstract:

【Objective】 Yanqi Basin is an important production base of characteristic agricultural products in Xinjiang, and the planting structure of crops is complicated. In this study, the time series remote sensing data were used to classify and identify crops in the study area, so as to obtain the spatial distribution of different crops and their planting areas, which were the important basis for government sectors to formulate grain policies and economic plans. At the same time, the applicability of time-weighted dynamic time warping (TWDTW ) method in crop classification and the application potential of GF-1 WFV in agriculture were also discussed.【Method】 The normalized vegetation index (NDVI), calculated from the 2018 time series GF-1 WFV data set in Yanqi Basin, Xinjiang, was used to study the crops recognition based on TWDTW method. Sample points of different crops were collected to form standard sequence of NDVI for each crop. The TWDTW similarity matching algorithm was used to calculate the similarity distance between each pixel to be classified and the standard sequence of different crops. The smaller the distance was, the higher the similarity was. The similarity was used to determine the crop type of the pixel, and the final classification result was obtained. At the same time, the classification rules of decision tree were established according to the NDVI curve of time series, and the classification result was obtained by manually setting the classification threshold, and compared with that of the TWDTW method. 【Result】 The classification results of the two methods were very consistent. Peppers were the most widely planted and the wheat was mainly distributed in the northern part of the Yanqi Basin and the 21st Division of the Second Agricultural Division. The distributions of tomato and sugar beet were relatively sporadic. Among the results of planting area, pepper had the largest planting area, followed by tomato, wheat and sugar beet. The accuracy of the classification results of the TWDTW and decision tree methods was verified by the field sample points: The overall accuracy of them were 89.58% and 90.97%, respectively, and the kappa index of them were 0.804 and 0.830, respectively. The classification accuracy of the TWDTW method was slightly higher than that of the decision tree method. 【Conclusion】 Compared with the decision tree classification method, the classification accuracy of the TWDTW method was slightly improved, the classification result was more objective and reliable. The algorithm of TWDTW method was not limited by geographical factors and had strong flexibility and applicability. The experimental results showed that using TWDTW algorithm to identify crops based on the GF-1 WFV data set of dense temporal phase could get better classification results, and it had great application and popularization value in agricultural field.
