These methods often fall short in adequately capturing both seasonal and detailed local spatial variations. This study addresses these limitations by establishing the Surface Thermal Discomfort Index (STDI), a composite of the Meteorological Discomfort Index (MDI) and the Discomfort Index over the land surface (DI<sub>-Land</sub>). Focused on Ibu Kota Negara Nusantara (IKN) in East Kalimantan and neighboring cities, MDI is derived from reanalysis data (ERA5-Land), validated with ground station data, while DI<sub>-Land</sub> is produced primarily from Landsat-8. An equal weighting factor was applied to MDI and DI<sub>-Land</sub> for estimating STDI. Results indicate that STDI captures both seasonal and spatial variations, reaching peak level in May and October, and hitting a low point in July. The spatial distribution of STDI is influenced by landuse types. In 2023, IKN experienced an STDI of 26.2 °C, while Balikpapan and Samarinda recorded at 26.5 and 26.4 °C, respectively. Compared to previous study in Jakarta, IKN and neighboring cities’s STDI are higher up to 0.2 °C, remaining within the partially comfortable range in the tropics. Projecting IKN’s development until 2045, an annual MDI increase of 0.01 °C is anticipated. Moreover, a 4% rise in built-up areas is expected to elevate STDI by 0.1–0.2 °C. This study provides insights into the thermal discomfort status in cities across East Kalimantan, anticipating a gradual increase in discomfort levels during the development of IKN.</p>","PeriodicalId":17510,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141516538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The automatic and accurate counting of wheat ears is essential for assessing wheat yield. However, the detection accuracy is greatly affected by the complex background and small target size. To address these challenges and improve the performance, we propose an enhanced YOLOv5s method. In the backbone, we introduce the efficient channel attention (ECA) to enhance the feature extraction capability of the original C3 module. Additionally, we incorporate a small-scale detection layer in the neck and prediction stages. This modification expands the original three-scale feature detection (20 × 20, 40 × 40, and 80 × 80) to a four-scale feature detection (20 × 20, 40 × 40, 80 × 80, and 160 × 160), thereby enhancing the recognition accuracy of small targets. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves an Accuracy (Acc) of 93.97%, which represents a 2.94% improvement over the YOLOv5s. Additionally, our method has a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.57, a reduction of 0.6 from the YOLOv5s. The Acc of the improved YOLOv5s approaches that of YOLOv7; however, the giga floating-point operations per second (GFLOPs) and inference speed of the enhanced YOLOv5s are significantly lower than those of YOLOv7. Across various phases of the wheat test dataset, the enhanced model demonstrated superior performance. As a result, the enhanced YOLOv5s enhances its suitability for challenging field conditions and offers a dependable technical framework for ear detection and wheat yield estimation.</p>","PeriodicalId":17510,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141516541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are a lot of applications in remote sensing images such as monitoring of the environment, change detection etc. It is an important and booming research area. Ineffective and inaccurate cloud and cloud shadow masking will cause undesirable effects on different task that can be performed by using remote sensing images. Because of high spectral conglomeration and the spectral and temperature discrepancy of the underlying surface the detection of clouds and associated shadows is not candid. In this paper, we propose CSDUNet a modified U-Net network for precise pixel-wise semantic segmentation of cloud and its associated shadow from optical remote sensing images. It uses an encoder network and a decoder network. This method concatenated feature maps at different scales. We have proposed a novel network for cloud detection, which extract features corresponding cloud and shadow at different scales from multilevel layers to generate sharp boundaries. Which will help to detect clouds in heterogeneous landscape, under complex underlying surfaces with varying geometry. Experimental analysis on the Landsat satellite dataset proves that the proposed CSDUNet achieves a dice coefficient of 95.05%. Our method got 95.93% precision, recall of 94.71% and Jaccard index of 97.29%.
