Water extraction model of multispectral optical remote sensing image

Accurate monitoring of surface water is an important basic application of remote sensing. The principle of optical remote sensing water extraction is based on different ground features having different spectral reflection characteristics. Some ground features (ice, snow, shadows, clouds) have similar reflection characteristics to water bodies, which leads to the failure of extraction and classification. Aiming at the problem of misclassification and omission of traditional water body index in water body extraction, this paper proposes a normalized difference multi-band water index model. This paper uses two experiments to test the stability of the new index. The area of experiment 1 is the Linzhi area of Tibet. The data source is Landsat 8 and Sentinel 2 satellite images in the same time phase. The experimental results verify the ability of the new index to suppress snow and ice. The Kappa coefficient of the new index is 0.86, the overall accuracy is 0.93, and the misclassification error is 0.03, the omission error is 0.12, the drawing accuracy is 0.97, and the producer accuracy is 0.88, which are better than the existing index. The data source of experiment 2 was GF-1, and Hong Kong Disneyland was used as the experimental area. Experiment 3 extracted water bodies in multiple regions and verified the stability of the water body index in this paper. Water extraction was performed in an environment with a small amount of clouds, which proved that the new index can suppress clouds and their shadows. This paper uses multi-source optical remote sensing image to verify the feasibility of the new index. Without additional auxiliary data, the influence of snow, cloud and shadow can be eliminated, and the water can be more effectively and automatically extracted, which can be extended to coastal resource research, glacier change, inland lake change and other fields.
