These challenges include aligning the semantic elements between maps and remote sensing images, and then balancing the photorealistic textures with cartographic symbolism to maintain cartographic quality. To address these challenges, we propose a flexible style transfer method from remote sensing images to maps, relaxing the requirement of strict spatial alignment between remote sensing images and maps. Our approach enables the generation of image maps with adjustable stylistic results, offering a balance between photorealism and symbolization. First, we analyze the semantic of the input map and the reference imagery including semantic classes and semantic relationships encoded by colors. Then we implement hierarchical control and parameter interpolation to enable style matching. We also compare the transfer results of our method to those of the baseline image style transfer methods across four aspects including visual similarity, graphic discriminability, semantic consistency, and overall readability.

The framework simulates spectral reflectance distortions from illumination variations in uncorrected WTW-LTSs before change detection and employs post-processing to remove the resulting topographic artifacts from detected disturbances.

These findings underscore the importance of eliminating topographic effects in WTW-LTSs for accurate forest disturbance detection.

In this study, we proposed a marker free automatic registration framework for multi-platform forest point clouds with terrain features. The framework comprised three key stages: first, a curvature-adaptive weighting mechanism was adapted to optimized the Fast Point Feature Histogram (FPFH) descriptors for initial coarse registration, utilizing terrains features. Second, individual tree positions were extracted from each platform’s LiDAR dataset and employed as key feature points for matching. Third, a similarity function was constructed to evaluate the most geometrically consistent point correspondences across platforms, which were subsequently refined through an Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm. Furthermore, a voxel-based denoising algorithm that integrated point density with vertical connectivity was developed to identify and filter out noise from the backpack LiDAR data—specifically, non-structural elements such as branches and shrubs. This denoising process laid a robust foundation for accurately locating individual tree centers. Additionally, a layer-wise adaptive circular fitting method was introduced for determining trunk positions. By clustering trunk point clouds at successive vertical layers, this method yielded precise estimates of straight, individual tree trunk centers for use in subsequent registration steps. The proposed framework achieved a registration accuracy of RMSE = 0.098–0.134 m across diverse forest types and terrain conditions, demonstrating its robustness and applicability in complex environments.

Owing to the nonlinear nature of atmospheric phenomena, however, forecasting becomes a challenging task that requires a multifaceted approach involving various sensors. Indeed, there exist compounding evidence that flood processes would benefit from use of various sensors. One such sensor is the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and its follow-on (GRACE-FO), which provides Total Water Storage (TWS) products that could potentially be useful for flood monitoring and forecasting. However, GRACE/GRACE-FO’s coarse spatial resolution of 300 km remains a bottleneck to the full exploitation of its products for flood studies and management. Herein, a deep learning Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) method with high learning capability that optimizes the hyperparameters is proposed to downscale the coarse GRACE/GRACE-FO TWS products (from 300 km to 55 km). Its spatial and temporal learning is subjected to three different training scenarios (i.e., 60 %, 70 % and 85 %), where the one with least root-mean-square-errors (RMSE) is selected as the best-case scenario. The proposed LSTM deep learning approach is tested based on the 2019 Lorestan flood in Iran, where the results show that it successfully models the spatio-temporal behavior of TWS changes with its long-term and short-term memory capabilities. In March and April 2019, heavy precipitation caused a significant increase in TWS changes, approximately 40 ± 2 cm. This is captured by the LSTM-downscaled products but not the coarse GRACE/GRACE-FO TWS changes. Furthermore, the LSTM downscaled GRACE-FO TWS for the period after 2018 shows a strong and statistically significant mean correlation (above 0.70 at the 95 % confidence level) with both river discharge and precipitation. The original GRACE-FO on the other hand shows a correlation of 0.40, indicating the superiority of the LSTM-derived GRACE-FO’s TWS changes. The coarse resolution of the GRACE satellite is a major cause of low correlation, which improves after downscaling. LSTM thus has the potential of downscaling GRACE products, providing data that are useful for flood process, management and studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73423,"journal":{"name":"International journal of applied earth observation and geoinformation : ITC journal","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104562"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially geo-referenced textual posts have been investigated extensively using techniques from Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI), topic modelling and sentiment analysis. However, workflows are traditionally sequential with independent processing steps, limiting their ability to capture interconnections between modalities and risking chains of dependencies. To overcome these limitations, we introduce an integrated GeoAI model called the Joint Spatio-Temporal Topic-Sentiment (JSTTS) model. Our proposed method combines semantic, sentiment, spatial and temporal knowledge into continuous feature vectors and is capable of computing geographically delineated sentiment-associated clusters of topics with meaningful location and temporal information. The properties of the JSTTS model were validated experimentally and the approach was evaluated against a comparable sequential workflow. Overall, our JSTTS model achieved higher topic quality scores with an average of 0.145 compared to 0.034 for the sequential workflow and higher average sentiment uniformity with an average of 0.89 versus 0.73. At the same time, both approaches exhibited similar spatial and temporal variance. As a secondary result, the Geographic Growing Self-Organising Map (Geo-GSOM) was developed to cluster multimodal feature vectors meaningfully in geographic space. It was evaluated on artificial training data where it reproduced up to 90% of the spatial autocorrelation while the non-spatial Growing Self-Organising Map (GSOM) only achieved 55%. The learned neuron grid can also be interpreted geographically. The utility of the JSTTS approach is demonstrated through a case study on the 2021 Ahr Valley flooding in Western Germany, where it identified interpretable multimodal clusters, a subset of which proved relevant for disaster management.

Among them, as a crucial economic crop, tobacco has been rarely studied and its large-scale identification task has consistently encountered several challenges. Firstly, tobacco is often inter-cropped with other crops, such as corn. These crops have similar colors and textures, with only minor differences in planting spacing and arrangement. These slight differences become even less observable in remote sensing imagery. Secondly, tobacco growth is a continuous and evolving process, resulting in drastically different characteristics during various growth stages and seasons, which further complicates the task of identification. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, no tobacco dataset is accessible to the public, impeding the development of a deep learning (DL) model with optimal performance. Therefore, a Large-scale UAV remote SEnsing Tobacco dataset (LUSET) which is the world’s first tobacco dataset with a total volume of 67GB has been conducted in this paper. 10 large-scale images in the LUSET are accurately annotated with an average resolution of about 20,000 × 20,000 pixels, which can be divided into 7,252 512 × 512 samples<span><span><sup>1</sup></span></span>.

Remote sensing based crop mapping studies in smallholder farming regions often focus on major crops and the challenge of mapping small fields. However, minor but possibly emerging crops are often overlooked, nor is the impact of environmental factors, such as water stress, on mapping accuracy considered. This study addresses these gaps by categorizing crop fields into different types and assessing mapping accuracy for both major and minor crops within each field type. We first categorized crop fields into four field types (big/small fields with/without water stress) based on field size and the shortwave infrared water stress index (SIWSI) derived from Sentinel-2 (S2). Crop mapping accuracies for different field types and crops (maize as a major crop and soybean as a minor crop) were compared at pixel-based (PB) and object-based (OB) levels using random forest classification applied to S2 and two additional publicly accessible multispectral datasets (PlanetScope with four bands (PS4) and eight bands (PS8)). The season-averaged SIWSI (SIWSI<sub>mean</sub>) provided a useful categorization of field types, as it is sensitive to mapping accuracy and is independent from field size. Based on S2 data, big fields without water stress can be most accurately mapped (F1-score = 0.89 for maize and 0.85 for soybean), followed by small fields without water stress (0.85 and 0.68) and big fields with water stress (0.82 and 0.59), while small fields with water stress are the most challenging type (0.77 and 0.37). Despite that the use of PS8 data with higher spatial resolution and OB classification improved mapping accuracy for small soybean fields with water stress, limitations to map such fields remain (F1-score &lt; 0.50). This study provides a new perspective on crop type mapping in smallholder farming regions by using a simple and relevant categorization of field types and offers valuable insights on potentials and limitations for large-scale crop type mapping using machine learning algorithms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73423,"journal":{"name":"International journal of applied earth observation and geoinformation : ITC journal","volume":"139 ","pages":"Article 104559"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143882025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
