It is extremely important to extract valuable information and achieve efficient integration of remote sensing data. The multi-source and heterogeneous nature of remote sensing data leads to the increasing complexity of these relationships, and means that the processing mode based on data ontology cannot meet requirements any more. On the other hand, the multi-dimensional features of remote sensing data bring more difficulties in data query and analysis, especially for datasets with a lot of noise. Therefore, data quality has become the bottleneck of data value discovery, and a single batch query is not enough to support the optimal combination of global data resources. In this paper, we propose a spatio-temporal local association query algorithm for remote sensing data (STLAQ). Firstly, we design a spatio-temporal data model and a bottom-up spatio-temporal correlation network. Then, we use the method of partition-based clustering and the method of spectral clustering to measure the correlation between spatio-temporal correlation networks. Finally, we construct a spatio-temporal index to provide joint query capabilities. We carry out local association query efficiency experiments to verify the feasibility of STLAQ on multi-scale datasets. The results show that the STLAQ weakens the barriers between remote sensing data, and improves their application value effectively.

Detecting forest degradation from satellite observation data is of great significance in revealing the process of decreasing forest quality and giving a better understanding of regional or global carbon emissions and their feedbacks with climate changes. In this paper, a quick and applicable approach was developed for monitoring forest degradation in the Three-North Forest Shelterbelt in China from multi-scale remote sensing data. Firstly, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI), Ratio Vegetation Index (RVI), Leaf Area Index (LAI), Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR) and Net Primary Production (NPP) from remote sensing data were selected as the indicators to describe forest degradation. Then multi-scale forest degradation maps were obtained by adopting a new classification method using time series MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) images, and were validated with ground survey data. At last, the criteria and indicators for monitoring forest degradation from remote sensing data were discussed, and the uncertainly of the method was analyzed. Results of this paper indicated that multi-scale remote sensing data have great potential in detecting regional forest degradation.
