Camellia oleifera is a vital economic crop of southern China. Accurate mapping and monitoring of Camellia oleifera plantations are essential for promoting sustainable operations within the Camellia oleifera industry. However, traditional remote sensing interpretation methods are no longer feasible for the large-scale extraction of plantation areas. This study proposes a novel deep learning-based method that utilizes GF-2 remote sensing imagery to achieve precise mapping and efficient monitoring of Camellia oleifera plantations. First, we conducted a comparative analysis of the performance of various semantic segmentation models using a self-compiled dataset of Camellia oleifera plantations. Subsequently, we proceeded to validate the prediction results obtained from the most effective deep-learning network model for Camellia oleifera plantations in Hengyang City. Finally, we incorporated DEM data to analyze the spatial distribution patterns. The findings indicate that the U-Net++ network model outperforms other semantic segmentation methods when applied to our self-generated dataset of Camellia oleifera plantations. It achieves a recall rate of 0.89, a precision rate of 0.92, and an mIOU of 0.83, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method in identifying and monitoring Camellia oleifera plantations. By combining the predicted results with the data from DEM, we discovered that these plantations are typically situated at elevations ranging from 50 to 200 m, with slopes below 25°, and facing south or southeast. Moreover, a significant positive spatial correlation and clustering phenomenon are observed among the townships in Hengyang City. The method proposed in this study facilitates rapid and precise identification and monitoring of Camellia oleifera plantations, offering significant theoretical support and a scientific foundation for the management and ecological conservation of Camellia oleifera plantations. |
