| Popis: | Accurate paddy rice mapping is crucial for ensuring food security and guiding agricultural production. Vegetation indices are extensively employed to map paddy rice. However, most traditional normalized indices tend to be oversaturated during periods of lush vegetation due to normalization errors, resulting in uncertainties in paddy rice mapping. To address this issue, we introduce a novel red-edge rice index (RERI) in this study; this index comprises information from red, near-infrared, and red-edge bands without normalization. To extract single- and double-cropping rice features from potential rice areas, we employ GF-6 and Sentinel-2 images based on the proposed RERI and the random forest algorithm. The proposed method is validated in the Dingcheng District of Changde city, China, and the results are compared with those based on three normalized vegetation indices. The results show that the RERI yielded the highest levels of the accuracy for all the metrics, achieving an overall accuracy (OA) of 92.50% and a kappa coefficient of 0.8875. The RERI exhibited F1 scores of 92.26% for single-cropping rice, 93.00% for double-cropping rice, and 92.28% for non-rice areas. Our results highlight the potential of using the RERI for rice identification, and the effectiveness of our method for rice extraction is demonstrated. |
