Mapping Areas Invaded by Pinus sp. from Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) Applied on RPAS (Drone) Color Images
<p><strong>Abstract: </strong>Invasive alien species reduce biodiversity. In southern Brazil, the genus <em>Pinus</em> is considered invasive, and its dispersal by humans has resulted in this species reaching ecosystems that are more sensitive and less suitable for cultivation, as it was the case for the restingas on the island of Santa Catarina. Invasion control requires persistent efforts to identify and treat each new invasion case as a priority. In this study, areas invaded by <em>Pinus</em> sp. in restingas were mapped using images taken by a remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS, or drone) to identify the invasion areas in great detail, enabling management to be planned for the most recently invaded areas, where management is simpler, more effective, and less costly. Geographic object-based image analysis (GEOBIA) was applied on images taken from a conventional RGB camera embedded in a RPAS, which resulted in a global accuracy of 89.56%, a mean kappa index of 0.86, and an F-score of 0.90 for the <em>Pinus</em> sp. Processing was conducted with open source software to reduce operational costs.</p>
Data from: Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis Framework for Mapping Vegetation Physiognomic Types at Fine Scales in Neotropical Savannas
<p>Spatially-explicit information featuring a wide range of detailed vegetation structural types are necessary to support conservation and ecological analyses. A systematic approach that accurately maps such detailed categories at regional scales is currently lacking for neotropical savannas. We developed a systematic Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) framework that accounts for spectral and spatial properties to map Cerrado vegetation structural types at 5-m resolution. This framework counts with a two-step mapping approach: (1) image segmentation and a Random Forest land cover classification based on spectral information (Level 1 classification), followed by (2) a GEOBIA knowledge-based classification that follows contextual and topological spatial rules developed in a systematic manner for mapping Cerrado ecological classes (Level 2 classification).</p><p>The framework was tested for two large study sites covering most major Cerrado physiognomic types: a control site in central Brazil (Taquara watershed site, located in Brasilia, Federal District, and embraces the IBGE Ecological Reserve) and another larger site that is located in an agricultural landscape in the western portion of Bahia State (encompasses parts of the municipalities of: Sao Desiderio, Luis Eduardo Magalhaes, Barreiras, and Riachao das Neves), which brings additional mapping challenges related to intra-class spectral similarity. </p><p>Results demonstrate that our GEOBIA approach is effective for mapping 13 land cover classes with 87.6% overall accuracy, of which all 11 major vegetation classes were identified.
