  3. Land cover change detection is of great significance • Land cover plays an important role in energy balance as well as biogeochemical and hydrological cycles in the Earth system (Avissar and Pielke, 1989; Lunetta et al., 2006). • Timely and accurate detection of land cover changes can • a) provide essential information to enhance our understanding of the mechanisms that drive the spatial-temporal processes of land cover change. • b) support the simulation and evaluation of the associated environmental impacts.

  4. Traditional change vector analysis (TCVA) • TCVA has then been widely adopted in land cover change detection using VI data (Lambin and Strahler, 1994). • TCVA is sensitive to temporal fluctuations in VI values, which greatly limits the method’s accuracy. • It may overestimate the actual changes. • It is not able to determine whether the results represent land cover conversion or simply VI variation of the same type of land cover. comparable change magnitude ? Land cover conversion growth vigor changes

  5. The CCSM algorithm has demonstrated its merits in estimating the similarity of two VI profile curves • A cross-correlogram can be constructed for each pair of VI profiles and a goodness-of-match value can be calculated accordingly. • Advantage:it is able to capture the shape similarity of two VI profiles even if there is a time lag between the two.

  6. Objectives • Proposing a new approach that improves TCVA with an adapted CCSM analysis. • The proposed approach was applied and validated through a case study of land cover conversion detection in the Beijing–Tianjin–Tangshan urban agglomeration district (BTT-UAD), China, using the MODIS Enhanced VI data (EVI) for 2000–2008.

  8. Traditional change vector analysis The VI time series data in the period R: The VI time series data in the period S: A greater M indicates a higher possibility of land cover change for pixel i. A specific threshold is used to distinguish change pixels from no-change pixels (Lambin and Strahler, 1994a)。

  9. (a)From cropland to built-upM=0.78 (b)From ‘winter wheat-summer maize’ to ‘spring maize’ • As comparable magnitude values of change vectors may also result from phenological variation of a vegetative type of land cover or change in its growth vigor, a threshold is not always effective in extracting land cover conversions. M=0.82 (c)Phenology changeM =0.78 (d)Vegetation growth status changeM =0.77 (e)No-changeM =0.13

  10. Improved change vector analysis(ICVA) • Three step: • TCVA is employed to preliminarily detect land cover changes. • The CCSM approach is used to identify and eliminate areas in which the land cover type did not really change but only experienced some degree of VI variation. • The type of land cover conversion (e.g., from cropland to built-up area) is determined by further analyzing the change vectors for the remaining pixels of interest. Time series data in time r Time series data in time s Preliminary detection of land cover change using traditional change vector analysis Identification and elimination of land cover modifications using cross-correlogram spectral matching analysis Determination of land cover change types Flow chart

  11. Preliminary land cover change detection using TCVA • The change magnitude of VI time series was calculated using the TCVA. • An optimal threshold was determined to extract the preliminary change information. • A semi-automatic method called Double-windows Flexible Pace Search method (DFPS) (Chen et al., 2003). TCVA DFPS VI time series in time r Change information Change magnitude VI time series in time s

  12. λr λs time time λs Rm λr Identifying and eliminating pseudo-conversion by CCSM analysis • The correlation coefficients (Rm) of the two VI profile curves between time r and s at different match positions (m) are calculated. where λs and λr are VI profile curve values for period r and s, respectively. m is the match position. n is the number of overlapping positions.

  13. |△V|=0.78 Rmax=0.996 Time Match position (m) Eliminating land cover modification using the CCSM algorithm • The maximum correlation coefficient (Rmax) is chosen as the shape similarity index of the two curves (Wang et al., 2009). where Rmax ranges from 0 to 1. The Rmax is equal to 1 when the shape of the VI profile curves between period r and s are completely the same. A larger Rmaxindicates a smaller difference between the two shapes of the VI profile curves. Time r Time s

  14. Eliminating land cover modification using the CCSM algorithm • The land cover modification is eliminated by an optimal threshold for Rmax usinga manual trial-and-error procedure . • Selecting sample areas with the help of the ancillary data. • Assessing the effectiveness of eliminating land cover modification for different thresholds. • Assigning the optimal threshold for Rmax to the value at which the eliminating effect is best.

  15. Ancillary data Change vector image Class map Change Type map Unsupervised clustering Discriminating the land cover conversion type • Unsupervised clustering approach (Bruzzone and Prieto, 2000)。 • Having no requirement for training data • Partitioning remotely sensed data with multi-spectral or multi-temporal information • Transforming the partitioned classes into a thematic map of interest by a posteriori • The unsupervised clustering method is adopted in this study to the actual land cover conversion types with the support of some ancillary data.

  18. 2000 2008 Data MODIS_EVI • MODIS_EVI data (specifically MOD 13Q data version 004) • The spatial resolution is 250m • The time spans from 2000 to 2008 • They were downloaded from the Earth Resources Observation Science Center of United States Geological Survey (USGS EROS) • Landsat ETM+ data: • 123/32 20 August 2000 and 11 September 2008 • 122/33 10 June 2000 and 3 August 2008 • They were downloaded from EROS data center • Other data: • The land use/cover data in 2000 • Field survey data • Images obtained from Google Earth

  24. Effectiveness analysis of the ICVA • The TCVA could not distinguish the land cover modification from land cover conversion accurately only by selecting the threshold for the change magnitude. • The ICVA can effectively eliminate partial land cover modification information by thoroughly use of the shape variation of the EVI profile curves and determining an optimal threshold for Rmax.

  26. Visually comparing • (a) Differences in the case of vegetation vigor change. • (b) Differences in the case of phenological change. • The TCVA misinterpret the vegetation vigor change and phenological change as land cover conversion, while the ICVA eliminate the two types of changes.

  27. The ICVA performed better than the TCVA in detecting the land cover conversion in the study area • The TCVA achieved a kappa coefficient of 0.29 and an overall accuracy of 60.40%, whereas the ICVA achieved a kappa coefficient of 0.42 and an overall accuracy of 71.20%.

  28. Outline • Introduction • Methods • Case study • Effectiveness analysis of the new method • Accuracy assessment • Conclusions and discussion

  29. Conclusions • We have proposed a new approach, named ICVA, that improves TCVA with an adapted use of cross-correlogram spectral matching (CCSM) analysis. • ICVA was applied to detect land cover conversion in BTT-UAD, China from two time series of MODIS EVI data for 2000 and 2008. The results showed that ICVA is able to map land cover conversion with a significantly higher accuracy (71.20%, kappa = 0.42) than TCVA (60.40%, kappa = 0.29). • The higher accuracy has been achieved by analyzing the multi-temporal VI information with the consideration of not only change magnitude but also profile similarity.

  30. Discussion • The application of ICVA has some limitations: • The approach is best used in distinguishing land cover modifications resulting from phenological and/or growth vigor changes. • More complex types of land cover changes, such as the cultivation pattern change of double cropping land to single cropping land, pose challenge to the proposed approach.
