However, the large scale variance of land covers in complex wetland scenes poses challenges for existing methods and leads to misclassifications. Additionally, existing methods encounter difficulties in practical wetland classification tasks due to the high cost of hyperspectral wetland data labeling. This paper introduces SAM-CTMapper, a coastal wetland classification framework that incorporates a scale-aware mixed CNN-Transformer (CTMapper) to precisely identify wetland cover types using hyperspectral images, and the advanced segment anything model (SAM) to save labor costs in data labeling. Specifically, a novel scale-aware mixed CNN-Transformer layer is designed in CTMapper to effectively leverage local and long-range spectral–spatial features from the whole HSI to reduce misclassification. This layer comprises a multi-head scale-aware convolution layer to capture local land-cover details, a multi-head superpixel self-attention layer for extracting long-range contextual features, and a dynamic selective module to facilitate effective aggregation of local and long-range information. Additionally, we devise a SAM-based semi-automatic labeling strategy to construct two PRISMA hyperspectral wetland (PRISMA-HW) datasets over Liaoning Shuangtai and Shanghai Chongming for evaluation purposes. Experimental results on two PRISMA-HW datasets and two publicly available hyperspectral wetland datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of CTMapper method in terms of both accuracy metrics and visual quality.

It is urgent to ensure the effective realization of water resource management, flood monitoring, and water quality assessment through fine-scale monitoring of water body spatial distribution and dynamics. Currently, various technologies have been applied to water information monitoring, with remote sensing-based spectral index methods being widely used due to their simplicity, low cost, and large-scale observation capabilities. However, the wide variety of existing water spectral indices, each suited to different scenarios and objectives, makes it challenging for ordinary users to select the most appropriate index and determine its optimal usage (i.e., threshold settings). This study addresses these challenges by evaluating the performance and applicability of 15 widely used water detection indices, using Sentinel-2 imagery across 14 representative global regions. The results revealed that the performance of water indices varied across different scenarios. Common issues include misidentification in high-reflectance backgrounds (e.g., buildings and snow), low-reflectance backgrounds (e.g., shadows), and omission errors for water bodies with high chlorophyll content. On this basis, this study provides a recommended table for water body index selection in different scenarios and a recommended range table for index thresholds, and point out key directions for future development of water body indices.

However, this process is often impeded by heavy cloud cover, which shares similar visual and spectral features with sea ice. To address these limitations, this study proposes a novel methodological framework for discriminating between sea ice and different cloud types (cirrus and cumulus) via the ultraviolet–visible-infrared observations from China’s Haiyang-1C/D (HY-1C/D) satellites, and the ultraviolet (UV) data from the onboard Ultraviolet Imager (UVI) are used to study sea ice and clouds over the Chukchi Sea for the first time. The spectral properties are characterized by the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) reflectance (<em>ρ</em><sub>TOA</sub>) in both UV and visible and near-infrared (VNIR) wavelengths. This indicates that the 355 nm UV band has the optimal sensitivity to the presence of sea ice and clouds, with cirrus clouds composed of high-altitude ice crystals exhibiting extremely high UV reflectivity. A hybrid threshold is subsequently determined to separate sea ice and cloud pixels. In comparison to the MODIS MOD29 sea ice product, which masks cloud pixels with brightness temperature (BT) differences, this algorithm can effectively reduce the misclassification resulting from surface temperature inversions in polar regions. The ice/cloud identification results have been further applied to sea ice concentration (SIC) estimation, and extensive trials of this UV-based ice/cloud detection approach in the Arctic Passages demonstrates its potential applicability.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73423,"journal":{"name":"International journal of applied earth observation and geoinformation : ITC journal","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104508"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143725752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate mapping of reclamation dynamics helps analyze its environmental effects and supports the government in regulating reclamation projects. Nevertheless, existing methods for monitoring coastal reclamation dynamics face two major limitations: overestimating reclamation areas and low temporal accuracy. This study proposes a novel method to automatically distinguish artificial reclamation from natural expansion to reduce the overestimation of reclaimed areas and improve temporal dynamic accuracy through time-series analysis of long-term Landsat satellite imagery. In China’s coastal regions, our method achieves an overall classification accuracy of over 94 % for artificial reclamation and natural expansion. The estimation accuracies of the year of reclamation are 91.60 % (one-year tolerance) and 96.44 % (two-year tolerance), which are more accurate than the post-classification comparison method based on the Global Surface Water (GSW) dataset. From 1990 to 2022, China’s coastal reclamation totaled 5,121.1 km2, with a slowdown after 2014 and a shift toward green development after 2018. Reclamation patterns varied regionally, with most projects concentrated in economically developed bays, driven primarily by urbanization and industrialization. The results prove that the proposed method can improve the spatiotemporal accuracy of coastal reclamation mapping, hence providing a more reliable data foundation for project siting, ecological impact assessment, and coastal management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73423,"journal":{"name":"International journal of applied earth observation and geoinformation : ITC journal","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104499"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143725751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the complex environment of land-sea transition zone, it is challenging to acquire comprehensive bathymetric topography using a single sensor. Multiplatform topographic bathymetric technology, such as airborne LiDAR bathymetry (ALB) and multibeam echo sounding (MBES), whose point clouds can be integrated to construct a complete model of land-sea transition zone. However, point cloud data from different sources may have certain differences in the digital description of the same target. Meanwhile, affected by factors such as registration error and sensor system error, there are data gaps in the registered point cloud, which hinders the subsequent reconstruction.

This paper’s contribution identifies non-overlapping ALB regions and generates anti-noise MBES simulated points (SPs) by constructing a pseudo-grid. Moreover, this paper focuses on establishing a point-to-SP model to eliminate the gaps and reduce the impact of registration errors on the fusion accuracy.
