Granite Extraction Based on the SDGSAT-1 Satellite Thermal Infrared Spectrometer Imagery.

Earth observation by remote sensing plays a crucial role in granite extraction, and many current studies use thermal infrared data from sensors such as ASTER. The challenge lies in the low spatial resolution of these satellites, hindering precise rock type identification. A breakthrough emerges with the Thermal Infrared Spectrometer (TIS) on the Sustainable Development Science Satellite 1 (SDGSAT-1) launched by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. With an exceptional 30 m spatial resolution, SDGSAT-1 TIS opens avenues for accurate granite extraction using remote sensing. This study, exemplified in Xinjiang's Karamay region, introduces the BR-ISauvola method, leveraging SDGSAT-1 TIS data. The approach combines band ratio with adaptive k-value selection using local grayscale statistical features for Sauvola thresholding. Focused on large-scale granite extraction, results show F1 scores above 70% for Otsu, Sauvola, and BR-ISauvola. Notably, BR-ISauvola achieves the highest accuracy at 82.11%, surpassing Otsu and Sauvola by 9.62% and 0.34%, respectively. This underscores the potential of SDGSAT-1 TIS data as a valuable resource for granite extraction. The proposed method efficiently utilizes spectral information, presenting a novel approach for rapid granite extraction using remote sensing TIS imagery, even in scenarios with low spectral resolution and a single data source.

A High-Precision Remote Sensing Identification Method for Land Desertification Based on ENVINet5.

Land desertification is one of the serious ecological and environmental problems facing mankind today, which threatens the survival and development of human society. China is one of the countries with the most serious land desertification problems in the world. Therefore, it is of great theoretical value and practical significance to carry out accurate identification and monitoring of land desertification and its influencing factors in ecologically fragile areas of China. This is conducive to curbing land desertification and ensuring regional ecological security. Minqin County, Gansu Province, located in northwestern China, is one of the most serious areas of land desertification, which is also one of the four sandstorm sources in China. Based on ENVINet5, this paper constructs a high-precision land desertification identification method with an accuracy of 93.71%, which analyzes the trend and reasons of land desertification in this area, provides suggestions for disaster prevention in Minqin County. and provides a reference for other similar areas to make corresponding desertification control policies.
