Mapping of crop types and crop sequences with combined time series of Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 data for Germany

TL;DR: In this article , a workflow for generating national agricultural land cover maps on a yearly basis that accounts for varying environmental conditions is proposed, and the results demonstrate the capabilities of integrated optical time series and SAR data in combination with variables describing local and seasonal environmental conditions for annual large-area crop type mapping.

Sentinel SAR-optical fusion for crop type mapping using deep learning and Google Earth Engine

TL;DR: The results showed that fusing multi-temporal SAR and optical data yields higher training overall accuracies (OA) and 3D convolutional neural networks perform better than 2D convolved neural networks for crop type mapping (SAR OA 0.912, optical OA0.992).

Crop Classification Based on Temporal Signatures of Sentinel-1 Observations over Navarre Province, Spain

TL;DR: The main objective of this study is to investigate the performance of a supervised crop classification approach based on crop temporal signatures obtained from Sentinel-1 time series in a challenging case study with a large number of crops and a high heterogeneity in terms of agro-climatic conditions and field sizes.

Crop Type Classification Using Fusion of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 Data: Assessing the Impact of Feature Selection, Optical Data Availability, and Parcel Sizes on the Accuracies

TL;DR: The results showed that, in contrast to most other studies, SAR datasets outperform optical datasets, and the optical-SAR combination outperformed single sensor predictions and no significant difference was recorded between feature stacking and decision fusion.

The Effect of Droughts on Vegetation Condition in Germany: An Analysis Based on Two Decades of Satellite Earth Observation Time Series and Crop Yield Statistics

TL;DR: The study shows that the EVI deviation of the summer months of 2018 were among the most extreme in the study period compared to other years, and the spatial pattern and temporal development of vegetation condition between the drought years differ.

Solutions for a cultivated planet

TL;DR: It is shown that tremendous progress could be made by halting agricultural expansion, closing ‘yield gaps’ on underperforming lands, increasing cropping efficiency, shifting diets and reducing waste, which could double food production while greatly reducing the environmental impacts of agriculture.
