Denoising and classification of urban ICESat-2 photon data fused with Sentinel-2 spectral images
International Journal of Digital Earth(2023)
摘要
The ICESat-2 (Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2) can collect earth surface elevation data with high precision on a global scale. However, the collected photon data contains a large amount of background noise due to the influence of sunlight, cloud reflection, and other factors. For photon data of different scenes, how to effectively denoise and achieve accurate classification of photon point clouds is crucial for subsequent applications. This study proposes a random forest based method for denoising and classifying ICESat-2 photon data in urban areas by fusing spectral features from Sentinel-2 images and spatial distribution features from photon data. The experimental results show that the method can effectively identify various types of photons. Compared with the reference data, the overall accuracy of photon denoising and classification is 95.97% on average, and the average kappa coefficient is 94.18%. Further analysis demonstrates that the addition of sentinel-2 spectral information can effectively improve the classification accuracy of photon point clouds in urban areas, and the photon classification method of combining photon lidar data and optical images can be a promising solution to improve classification accuracy.
