Abstract: Abstract: As an important economic tree species in China, tea trees play a critical role in promoting economic development. However, the expanding area of tea plantations in China over the recent years has reduced the biodiversity of the ecosystem and accelerated ecological problems. Identifying the spatial distribution of the tea plantation accurately is important for the monitoring of the tea plantation as well as the development of the tea industry. In this study, Wangzhai Town, located in the central of Wuyi County in Zhejiang Province, was chosen as the study area, and Gaofen-1 (GF-1) data on December 28, 2017, and all available Sentinel-2 data in 2017 were downloaded to study the tea plantations extraction method. The spectral and texture features of tea plantations are similar with crops on the high spatial resolution remote sensing image which results in the mixture of the tea plantations and crops. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) time series data can reflect the phenological changes of the tea trees and crops, which can be used to improve the separability of tea plantations and crops. In this study, a phenology-based approach was applied to the NDVI time series to distinguish tea plantations from crops by comparing the similarity of the seasonal changes of NDVI time series. Due to the influence of cloud and fog on the satellite image, the complete Sentinel-2 time series data is difficult to be obtained. Therefore, the high temporal resolution Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) reflection product (MCD43A4) in 2017 was used to reconstruct the complete Sentinel-2 NDVI time series data (5 m spatial resolution, 5 d temporal resolution) based on Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) spatial-temporal fusion algorithm. Then, the Dynamic Time Wraping (DTW) distance was calculated based on the DTW algorithm to characterize the similarity of NDVI time series between the tea plantation samples and other pixels to be classified. Combining the advantages of GF-1 in spatial details and the high temporal resolution of reconstructed Sentinel-2 NDVI time series in capturing the difference of growth process of tea trees, the tea plantation was identified based on random forest algorithm. Two identification schemes: 1) spectral and texture features based on GF-1; 2) spectral, texture features based on GF-1 and DTW distance were set up to investigate the impact of NDVI time series on the tea plantation identification. The results showed that: 1) the reconstructed NDVI time series data derived from MODIS and Sentinel-2 based on spatio-temporal fusion algorithm is able to capture the seasonal dynamics of different objects, and the DTW distance can capture the difference of NDVI time series data between crops and tea plantations and can be used for tea plantations extraction; 2) the accuracy、error rate、precision、recall and F1score were 96.91%、3.09%、89.00%、83.09% and 0.86 respectively combining texture and spectral information of GF-1 and Sentinel-2 NDVI time series information, which were 94.72%、5.28%、73.09%、84.61% and 0.78 respectively without Sentinel-2 NDVI time series information. Overall, the results of combining GF-1 and Sentinel-2 time series data performed better than that only based on the spectral and texture features of GF-1. These results confirmed that combining high spatial resolution with high temporal resolution time series remote sensing data is an effective method to improve the identification accuracy of tea plantations.
