Abstract Timely and precise yield estimation is of great significance to agricultural management and macro-policy formulation. In order to improve the accuracy and applicability of cotton yield estimation model, this paper proposes a new method called SENP (Seedling Emergence and Number of Peaches) based on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Firstly, using the high-resolution visible light data obtained by the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), the spatial position of each cotton seedling in the region was extracted by U-Net model of deep learning. Secondly, Sentinel-2 data were used in analyzing the correlation between the multi-temporal Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and the actual yield, so as to determine the weighting factor of NDVI in each period in the model. Subsequently, to determine the number of bolls, the growth state of cotton was graded. Finally, combined with cotton boll weight, boll opening rate and other information, the cotton yield in the experimental area was estimated by SENP model, and the precision was verified according to the measured data of yield. The experimental results reveal that the U-Net model can effectively extract the information of cotton seedlings from the background with high accuracy. And the precision rate, recall rate and F1 value reached 93.88%, 97.87% and 95.83% respectively. NDVI based on time series can accurately reflect the growth state of cotton, so as to obtain the predicted boll number of every cotton, which greatly improves the accuracy and universality of the yield estimation model. The determination coefficient (R2) of the yield estimation model reached 0.92, indicating that using SENP model for cotton yield estimation is an effective method. This study also proved that the potential and advantage of combining the AWS platform with SENP, due to its powerful cloud computing capacity, especially for deep learning, time-series crop monitoring and large scale yield estimation. This research can provide the reference information for cotton yield estimation and cloud computing platform application.

Accurate and timely information about rice planting areas is essential for crop yield estimation, global climate change and agricultural resource management. In this study, we present a novel pixel-level classification approach that uses convolutional neural network (CNN) model to extract the features of enhanced vegetation index (EVI) time series curve for classification. The goal is to explore the practicability of deep learning techniques for rice recognition in complex landscape regions, where rice is easily confused with the surroundings, by using mid-resolution remote sensing images. A transfer learning strategy is utilized to fine tune a pre-trained CNN model and obtain the temporal features of the EVI curve. Support vector machine (SVM), a traditional machine learning approach, is also implemented in the experiment. Finally, we evaluate the accuracy of the two models. Results show that our model performs better than SVM, with the overall accuracies being 93.60% and 91.05%, respectively. Therefore, this technique is appropriate for estimating rice planting areas in southern China on the basis of a pre-trained CNN model by using time series data. And more opportunity and potential can be found for crop classification by remote sensing and deep learning technique in the future study.

Satellite image time series (SITS) classification is a major research topic in remote sensing and is relevant for a wide range of applications. Deep learning approaches have been commonly employed for SITS classification and have provided state-of-the-art performance. However, deep learning methods suffer from overfitting when labeled data is scarce. To address this problem, we propose a novel self-supervised pre-training scheme to initialize a Transformer-based network by utilizing large-scale unlabeled data. In detail, the model is asked to predict randomly contaminated observations given an entire time series of a pixel. The main idea of our proposal is to leverage the inherent temporal structure of satellite time series to learn general-purpose spectral-temporal representations related to land cover semantics. Once pre-training is completed, the pre-trained network can be further adapted to various SITS classification tasks by fine-tuning all the model parameters on small-scale task-related labeled data. In this way, the general knowledge and representations about SITS can be transferred to a label-scarce task, thereby improving the generalization performance of the model as well as reducing the risk of overfitting. Comprehensive experiments have been carried out on three benchmark datasets over large study areas. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, leading to a classification accuracy increment up to 1.91% to 6.69%. <div><b>This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication.

In recent days, we face workload and time series issue in cloud computing. This leads to wastage of network, computing and resources. To overcome this issue we have used integrated deep learning approach in our proposed work. Accurate prediction of workload and resource allocation with time series enhances the performance of the network. Initially the standard deviation is reduced by applying logarithmic operation and then powerful filters are adopted to remove the extreme points and noise interference. Further the time series is predicted by integrated deep learning method. This method accurately predicts the workload and sequence of resource along with time series. Then the obtained data is standardized by a Min-Max scalar and the quality of the network is preserved by incorporating network model. Finally our proposed method is compared with other currently used methods and the results are obtained.

Abstract Periodic forest monitoring needs to be done to avoid forest degradation. In general, forest monitoring can be conducted manually (field surveys) or using technological innovations such as remote sensing data derived from aerial images (drone results) or cloud computing-based image processing. Currently, remote sensing technology provides large-scale forest monitoring using multispectral sensors and various vegetation index processing algorithms. This study aimed to evaluate the use of the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, a geospatial dataset platform, in the Vale Indonesia mining concession area to improve accountable forest monitoring. This platform integrates a set of programming methods with a publicly accessible time-series database of satellite imaging services. The method used is NDVI processing on Landsat multispectral images in time series format, which allows for the description of changes in forest density levels over time. The results of this NDVI study conducted on the GEE platform have the potential to be used as a tool and additional supporting data for monitoring forest conditions and improvement in mining regions.

While annual crop rotations play a crucial role for agricultural optimization, they have been largely ignored for automated crop type mapping. In this paper, we take advantage of the increasing quantity of annotated satellite data to propose to model simultaneously the inter- and intra-annual agricultural dynamics of yearly parcel classification with a deep learning approach. Along with simple training adjustments, our model provides an improvement of over 6.3% mIoU over the current state-of-the-art of crop classification, and a reduction of over 21% of the error rate. Furthermore, we release the first large-scale multi-year agricultural dataset with over 300,000 annotated parcels.
