The real-time, accurate, and refined monitoring of urban green space status information is of great significance in the construction of urban ecological environment and the improvement of urban ecological benefits. The high-resolution technology can provide abundant information of ground objects, which makes the information of urban green surface more complicated. The existing classification methods are challenging to meet the classification accuracy and automation requirements of high-resolution images. This paper proposed a deep learning classification method for urban green space based on phenological features constraints in order to make full use of the spectral and spatial information of green space provided by high-resolution remote sensing images (GaoFen-2) in different periods. The vegetation phenological features were added as auxiliary bands to the deep learning network for training and classification. We used the HRNet (High-Resolution Network) as our model and introduced the Focal Tversky Loss function to solve the sample imbalance problem. The experimental results show that the introduction of phenological features into HRNet model training can effectively improve urban green space classification accuracy by solving the problem of misclassification of evergreen and deciduous trees. The improvement rate of F1-Score of deciduous trees, evergreen trees, and grassland were 0.48%, 4.77%, and 3.93%, respectively, which proved that the combination of vegetation phenology and high-resolution remote sensing image can improve the results of deep learning urban green space classification.

Providing vegetation type information with accurate surface distribution is one of the important tasks of remote sensing of the ecological environment. Many studies have explored ecosystem structure information at specific spatial scales based on specific remote sensing data, but it is still rare to extract vegetation information at various landscape levels from a variety of remote sensing data. Based on Gaofen-1 satellite (GF-1) Wide-Field-View (WFV) data (16 m), Ziyuan-3 satellite (ZY-3) and airborne LiDAR data, this study comparatively analyzed the four levels of vegetation information by using the geographic object-based image analysis method (GEOBIA) on the typical natural secondary forest in Northeast China. The four levels of vegetation information include vegetation/non-vegetation (L1), vegetation type (L2), forest type (L3) and canopy and canopy gap (L4). The results showed that vegetation height and density provided by airborne LiDAR data could extract vegetation features and categories more effectively than the spectral information provided by GF-1 and ZY-3 images. Only 0.5 m LiDAR data can extract four levels of vegetation information (L1–L4); and from L1 to L4, the total accuracy of the classification decreased orderly 98%, 93%, 80% and 69%. Comparing with 2.1 m ZY-3, the total classification accuracy of L1, L2 and L3 extracted by 2.1 m LiDAR data increased by 3%, 17% and 43%, respectively. At the vegetation/non-vegetation level, the spatial resolution of data plays a leading role, and the data types used at the vegetation type and forest type level become the main influencing factors. This study will provide reference for data selection and mapping strategies for hierarchical multi-scale vegetation type extraction.
