Pulau Tanakeke merupakan salah satu pulau dengan hutan mangrove yang luas di pesisir Sulawesi Selatan. Hutan mangrove ini menjadi ekosistem penting bagi masyarakat sekitar karena nilai ekologi maupun ekonominya. Namun, dalam kurun waktu sekitar tahun 1980-2000, keberadaan mangrove tersebut terancam oleh perubahan penggunaan lahan dan juga pemanfaatan yang berlebihan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perubahan temporal luas dan tingkat kerapatan hutan mangrove di Pulau Tanakeke antara tahun 2016 dan 2019. Metode analisis perubahan luasan hutan mangrove menggunakan data citra satelit Sentinel-2 multi temporal berdasarkan hasil klasifikasi hutan mangrove dengan menggunakan random forest pada platform Google Earth Engine. Akurasi keseluruhan hasil klasifikasi hutan mangrove tahun 2016 dan 2019 sebesar 91% dan 98%. Berdasarkan hasil analisis spasial diperoleh perubahan penurunan luasan mangrove yang signifikan dari 800,21 ha menjadi 640,15 ha. Kerapatan mangrove di Pulau Tanakeke sebagian besar tergolong kategori dalam kerapatan tinggi.

<p><span lang="EN-US">To obtain accurate information on land cover changes in the agricultural sector, we propose a supervised classification method that integrates Sentinel-2 satellite imagery with images surveyed from Remote Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS). The methodology was implemented on the Google Earth Engine platform. Initially, the Sentinel-2 imagery collection was integrated into a single image through a median reduction process. Subsequently, the high-pass filter (HPF) pansharpening image fusion method was applied to the thermal spectral bands to obtain a final spatial resolution of 10 m. To perform the integration of the two image sources, the RPAS image was normalized by using a 5X5 gaussian texture filter and the pixel was resampled to five times its original size. This procedure was performed iteratively until reaching the spatial resolution of the Sentinel-2 imagery. Besides, the following inputs were added to the classification: the spectral indices calculated from the Sentinel-2 and RPAS bands (e.g. NDVI, NDWI, SIPI, GARI); altimetric information and slopes of the zone derived from the SRTM DEM. The supervised classification was done by using the Random Forest technique (Machine Learning). The land cover seed reference to perform the classification was manually captured by a thematic expert, then, this reference was distributed in 70% for the training of the Random Forest algorithm and in 30% to validate the classification. The results show that the incorporation of the RPAS image improves thematic accuracy indicators by an average of 3% compared to a classification made exclusively with Sentinel-2 imagery.</span></p>

Abstract. The amount of impervious surface is an important indicator in the monitoring of the intensity of human activity and environmental change. The use of remote sensing techniques is the only means of accurately carrying out global mapping of impervious surfaces covering large areas. Optical imagery can capture surface reflectance characteristics, while synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images can be used to provide information on the structure and dielectric properties of surface materials. In addition, night-time light (NTL) imagery can detect the intensity of human activity and thus provide important a priori probabilities of the occurrence of impervious surfaces. In this study, we aimed to generate an accurate global impervious surface map at a resolution of 30-m for 2015 by combining Landsat-8 OLI optical images, Sentinel-1 SAR images and VIIRS NTL images based on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. First, the global impervious and non-impervious training samples were automatically derived by combining the GlobeLand30 land-cover product with VIIRS NTL and MODIS enhanced vegetation index (EVI) imagery. Then, based on global training samples and multi-source and multi-temporal imagery, a random forest classifier was trained and used to generate corresponding impervious surface maps for each 5°×5° cell of a geographical grid. Finally, a global impervious surface map, produced by mosaicking numerous 5°×5° regional maps, was validated by interpretation samples and then compared with three existing impervious products (GlobeLand30, FROM_GLC and NUACI). The results indicated that the global impervious surface map produced using the proposed multi-source, multi-temporal random forest classification (MSMT_RF) method was the most accurate of the maps, having an overall accuracy of 96.6 % and kappa coefficient of 0.903 as against 92.5 % and 0.769 for FROM_GLC, 91.1 % and 0.717 for GlobeLand30, and 87.43 % and 0.585 for NUACI. Therefore, it is concluded that a global 30-m impervious surface map can accurately and efficiently be generated by the proposed MSMT_RF method based on the GEE platform. The global impervious surface map generated in this paper are available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3505079 (Zhang et al., 2019).

Mangroves are among the most productive ecosystems in existence, with many ecological benefits. Therefore, generating accurate thematic maps from mangrove ecosystems is crucial for protecting, conserving, and reforestation planning for these valuable natural resources. In this paper, Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellite images were used in synergy to produce a detailed mangrove ecosystem map of the Hara protected area, Qeshm, Iran, at 10 m spatial resolution within the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud computing platform. In this regard, 86 Sentinel-1 and 41 Sentinel-2 data, acquired in 2019, were employed to generate seasonal optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) features. Afterward, seasonal features were inserted into a pixel-based random forest (RF) classifier, resulting in an accurate mangrove ecosystem map with average overall accuracy (OA) and Kappa coefficient (KC) of 93.23% and 0.92, respectively, wherein all classes (except aerial roots) achieved high producer and user accuracies of over 90%. Furthermore, comprehensive quantitative and qualitative assessments were performed to investigate the robustness of the proposed approach, and the accurate and stable results achieved through cross-validation and consistency checks confirmed its robustness and applicability. It was revealed that seasonal features and the integration of multi-source remote sensing data contributed towards obtaining a more reliable mangrove ecosystem map. The proposed approach relies on a straightforward yet effective workflow for mangrove ecosystem mapping, with a high rate of automation that can be easily implemented for frequent and precise mapping in other parts of the world. Overall, the proposed workflow can further improve the conservation and sustainable management of these valuable natural resources.

Land use and land cover (LULC) are fundamental units of human activities. Therefore, it is of significance to accurately and in a timely manner obtain the LULC maps where dramatic LULC changes are undergoing. Since 2017 April, a new state-level area, Xiong’an New Area, was established in China. In order to better characterize the LULC changes in Xiong’an New Area, this study makes full use of the multi-temporal 10-m Sentinel-2 images, the cloud-computing Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, and the powerful classification capability of random forest (RF) models to generate the continuous LULC maps from 2017 to 2020. To do so, a novel multiple RF-based classification framework is adopted by outputting the classification probability based on each monthly composite and aggregating the multiple probability maps to generate the final classification map. Based on the obtained LULC maps, this study analyzes the spatio-temporal changes of LULC types in the last four years and the different change patterns in three counties. Experimental results indicate that the derived LULC maps achieve high accuracy for each year, with the overall accuracy and Kappa values no less than 0.95. It is also found that the changed areas account for nearly 36%, and the dry farmland, impervious surface, and other land-cover types have changed dramatically and present varying change patterns in three counties, which might be caused by the latest planning of Xiong’an New Area. The obtained 10-m four-year LULC maps in this study are supposed to provide some valuable information on the monitoring and understanding of what kinds of LULC changes have taken place in Xiong’an New Area.

Ketersediaan informasi potensi lahan jagung yang cepat terbaharui penting untuk mendukung pemulihan ekonomi pasca covid 19. Pemetaan jagung menjadi suatu tantangan tersendiri di bidang pertanian karena areal penanaman jagung tidak memiliki ciri khusus seperti sawah, jagung belum memiliki peta luas baku, serta  penanamannya dapat dilakukan di sawah maupun lahan-lahan kering hutan. Permasalahan lainnya, perlu sumberdaya komputasi yang tinggi jika pemetaan jagung dilakukan secara langsung ataupun identifikasi secara manual. Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan pemetaan potensi jagung di Jawa Timur pada Kabupaten terpilih secara otomatis menggunakan Machine learning pada cloud computing google earth engine. Dengan penggunaan cloud computing GEE, pemetaan jagung dapat dilakukan pada area luas tanpa terkendala kemampuan komputer. Penelitian ini menggunakan algoritma pembelajaran mesin Random Forest(RF) berbasis piksel dengan input data dari satelit Landsat-8, Sentinel-1 dan Sentinel-2. Data referensi untuk melatih model klasifikasi menggunakan hasil KSA jagung. Akurasi hasil Machine learning paling baik berasal dari kombinasi Landsat-8 dan Sentinel-2 dengan rataan akurasi sebesar 0.79. Model klasifikasi kemudian diaplikasikan pada 10 Kabupaten dimana hasil terbaik adalah pada Kabupaten Banyuwangi dengan akurasi  0.89. Dilihat dari luas potensi jagung pada daerah Banyuwangi luasan berkisar dari 22.256,82 – 58.992,3 Ha berdasarkan pixel yang terprediksi sebagai jagung minimal 3 kali/bulan. Dari hasil kajian ini terbukti bahwa penggunaan cloud computing dapat melakukan penghitungan pada 10 Kabupaten secara cepat baik dari sisi pembangunan model maupun dari prediksinya. Selain itu karena menggunakan cloud computing pemanfaatan citra satelit dapat dimanfaatkan secepat mungking setelah citra satelit terbit/rilis sehingga prediksi dari potensi jagung dapat secara cepat dan tepat dihasilkan. Kajian ini juga menyoroti kekurangan yang terjadi yaitu dari sisi jumlah sampel untuk data latih dan keterbatasan algoritma yang digunakan sehingga kedepannya dapat dikembangkan lebih baik lagi.

Abstract. Land Cover (LC) plays a key role in many disciplines and its classification from optical imagery is one of the prevalent applications of remote sensing. Besides years of researches and innovation on LC, the classification of some areas of the World is still challenging due to environmental and climatic constraints, such as the one of the mountainous chains. In this contribution, we propose a specific methodology for the classification of the Land Cover in mountainous areas using Sentinel 2, 1C-level imagery. The classification considers some specific high-altitude mountainous classes: clustered bare soils that are particularly prone to erosion, glaciers, and solid-rocky areas. It consists of a pixel-based multi-epochs classification using random forest algorithm performed in Google Earth Engine (GEE). The study area is located in the western Alps between Italy and France and the analyzed dataset refers to 2017–2019 imagery captured in the summertime only. The dataset was pre-processed, enriched of derivative features (radiometric, histogram-based and textural). A workflow for the reduction of the computational effort for the classification, which includes correlation and importance analysis of input features, was developed. Each image of the dataset was separately classified using random forest classification algorithm and then aggregated each other by the most frequent pixel value. The results show the high impact of textural features in the separation of the mountainous-specific classes the overall accuracy of the final classification achieves 0.945.

As dunas correspondem a processos de sedimentação eólica, que podem estar tanto nas áreas costeiras marinhas, como no interior do continente com algumas diferenças na modelagem. No Sul do deserto do Atacama, no Norte do Chile, há um conjunto de seis campos de dunas intermontanhas chamadas Mar de Dunas do Atacama, as quais têm tipologias complexas de dunas do deserto, que podem ser ativas, semiativas ou estabilizadas. O seu monitoramento é conveniente para conhecer detalhes sobre a possível invasão de areias das dunas ao sul do rio Copiapó. Dessa forma, esta pesquisa tem como objetivo avaliar os métodos de classificação supervisionada Random Forest, CART e SmileCART através de duas metodologias de amostragens, aleatória e estratificada, numa imagem Landsat 5 na plataforma em nuvem Google Earth Engine, a fim de verificar qual método oferece o melhor resultado para o mapeamento do Mar de Dunas do Atacama. Para conseguir este objetivo, foram criados polígonos de classes para a realização da amostragem aleatória estratificada e chave de interpretação para amostragem aleatória simples. O processo de avaliação da acurácia foi feito através de imagem Sentinel 2 com a aplicação dos índices de Simultaneidade Geográfica, Erros de Comissão e Omissão, e Exatidão Global. Observou-se como resultados para os algoritmos testados, que os três algoritmos foram eficientes para o mapeamento das Dunas do Atacama, entretanto, a técnica de classificação supervisionada por CART, com a metodologia da amostragem aleatória simples, representou o melhor desempenho.      Identification of the Atacama Dunes (Northern Chile) from the evaluation of three algorithms on Google Earth EngineA B S T R A C TThe dunes correspond to wind sedimentation processes, which can be found both in marine coastal areas and in the interior of the continent with some differences in modeling. In the south of the Atacama desert, in northern Chile, there are a set of six inter-mountain dune fields called Mar de Dunas do Atacama, which have complex types of desert dunes, which can be active, semi-active or stabilized. Its monitoring is convenient to know details about the possible invasion of sand from the dunes south of the Copiapó River. Thus, this research aims to evaluate the supervised classification methods Random Forest, CART and SmileCART through two sampling methodologies, random and stratified, in a Landsat 5 image on the Google Earth Engine cloud platform, in order to verify which method offers the best result for mapping the Atacama Dunes Sea. In order to achieve this objective, class polygons were created to perform stratified random sampling and the interpretation key for simple random sampling. The accuracy assessment process was performed using a Sentinel 2 image with the application of the Geographic Simultaneity indices and the Commission and Omission Errors. It was observed as results for the tested algorithms, that the three algorithms were efficient for mapping the Atacama Dunes, however, the CART supervised classification technique, with the simple random sampling methodology, represents the best performance.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Cloud coverage is one of the biggest concerns in spaceborne optical remote sensing, because it hampers a continuous monitoring of the Earth’s surface. Based on Google Earth Engine, a web- and cloud-based platform for the analysis and visualization of large-scale geospatial data, we present a fully automatic workflow to aggregate cloud-free Sentinel-2 images for user-defined areas of interest and time periods, which can be significantly shorter than the one-year time frames that are commonly used in other multi-temporal image aggregation approaches. We demonstrate the feasibility of our workflow for several cities spread around the globe and affected by different amounts of average cloud cover. The experimental results confirm that our results are better than the results achieved by standard approaches for cloud-free image aggregation.</p>
