This technique effectively addresses the trade-off between spectral resolution and spatial coverage in remote sensing imagery, attracting significant research attention. However, traditional spectral SR methods based on sparse representation and deep learning primarily exploit local similarities in HSI, neglecting prevalent non-local spatial patterns, thus limiting reconstruction performance. In this paper, we propose a Combined Subspace Low Rank Learning and NonLocal Low Rank Estimation (CSLNLE) method for MSI spectral SR, capturing both global spectral correlations and nonlocal spatial-spectral self-similarity. The CSLNLE method decomposes the target HSI into a low-rank dictionary of subspaces and associated coefficient matrices. Through low-rank learning, we derive dictionaries from overlapping HSI-MSI regions and estimate coefficients for non-overlapping MSI regions using a nonlocal tensor multi-rank prior. Specifically, images are partitioned into patches, clustered by similarity, and coefficient matrices are estimated via low-tensor multi-rank decomposition within each group. Spectral SR experiments on simulated and real datasets using seven current benchmark methods validate the superiority of our proposed method.","PeriodicalId":54962,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Digital Earth","volume":"18 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147879029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urban resilience emphasizes the symbiosis with risks, which can improve the risk management effectiveness of urban systems in complex and uncertain environments, and meets the social needs of disaster normalization. Guilin has long been plagued by frequent floods and droughts, which have caused significant economic losses, and exacerbated the city's development load. This study constructs an urban resilience indicator system from five dimensions: economic, social, ecological, engineering and disaster, and uses the CRITIC-ωTOPSIS method to solve the problem of weight distribution of indicators, highlight the influence of indicator weights on the urban toughness scores over the years, and quantitatively assess the urban toughness of Guilin from 2000 to 2023, revealing its spatial–temporal differentiation characteristics. The results show that:(1) During the period 2000-2023, Guilin's urban resilience as a whole shows a fluctuating ‘V-shaped’ development.(2) Guilin City demonstrates clear evolutionary resilience, with its four area types undergoing leapfrogging and transformation across both time and space. This study offers key theoretical and practical guidance for Guilin's sustainable development.","PeriodicalId":54962,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Digital Earth","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147877285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, many existing mine-mapping studies tend to classify all vegetation into a single class, overlooking inter-species differentiation and thereby limiting the precision of ecological evaluations. To address this issue, this study proposed a multi-scale hierarchical classification (MSHC) method for fine-scale mapping of vegetation types in open phosphate mining areas by combining unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) RGB remote sensing imagery and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data with the support of object-oriented methods. The results showed that (1) The all features (AF) scheme achieved an overall accuracy (OA) of 97.04% and a Kappa coefficient of 0.98. (2) The proposed MSHC method reached an OA of 97.69% and a Kappa of 0.97. (3) The vegetation in the study area was predominantly grassland (approximately 29.57% of the total area), with Alnus nepalensis being the dominant tree species (16.07% of the area). Overall, this study provides a detailed classification of vegetation types, offering a valuable dataset for ecological monitoring and assessment. The proposed method also presents a transferable and effective approach for the fine-scale vegetation mapping of other open-pit mining environments.","PeriodicalId":54962,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Digital Earth","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147899366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
