| Abstract: | This study investigates the potential of multi-temporal signature analysis of satellite imagery to map rice area in South
24 Paraganas district of West Bengal. Two optical data (IRS ID LISS III) and three RADARSAT SAR data of different dates were
acquired during 2001. Multi-temporal SAR backscatter signatures of different landcovers were incorporated into knowledge based
decision rules and kharif landcover map was generated. Based on the spectral variation in signature, the optical data acquired
during rabi (January) and summer (March) season were classified using supervised maximum likelihood classifier. A co-incidence
matrix was generated using logical approach for a combined “rabi-summer” and “kharif-rabi-summer” landcover mapping. The major
landcovers obtained in South 24 Paraganas using remote sensing data are rice, water, aquaculture ponds, homestead, mangrove,
and urban area. The classification accuracy of rice area was 98.2% using SAR data. However, while generating combined “kharif-rabi-summer”
landcovers, the classification accuracy of rice area was improved from 81.6% (optical data) to 96.6% (combined SAR-Optical).
The primary aim of the study is to achieve better accuracy in classifying rice area using the synergy between the two kinds
of remotely sensed data. |
