Abstract
En 中文
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is the pilot area of the Belt and Road, where glaciers and lakes are widely distributed. Recent years, global warming has accelerated the expansion of glacier lakes, which increased the risk of natural disasters such as glacier lake outburst. It is important to monitor the glacier lakes in this region. In this paper, we propose a method combining the object-oriented image analysis with boundary recognition (OOBR) to extract lakes in several study areas of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). This method recognized the lake boundary with the symmetrical characteristic according to the principle of seed growth of watershed algorithm, which can correct the boundary extracted by the object-oriented method. The overall accuracy of the proposed method is up to 98.5% with Landsat series images. The experiments also show that the overall accuracy of our method is always higher than that of the object-oriented method with different segmentation scales mentioned in this paper. The proposed method improved the overall accuracy on the basis of the results obtained by the object-oriented method, and the results with the proposed method are more robust to the seeds than that with the boundary correction method of the watershed algorithm. Therefore, the proposed method can obtain a high extraction accuracy while reducing the complexity of the object-oriented extraction.
