Abstract

The invention relates to a method and device for estimating forest above-ground biomass. The method comprises the steps that perpendicular distribution of the relative reflectivity of pixels is estimated for a pair of preprocessed polarization interference SAR images by using a Legendre expansion equation of multiple correlation of the pixels in the perpendicular direction; scattering type distinguishing is conducted on all the pixels in the preprocessed main image, areas formed by all volume scattering type pixels in the image are regarded as forest areas, and object-oriented partition is conducted, so that a plurality of polygon forest stands representing homogeneity forest objects are obtained; for all the polygon forest stands, average relative reflectivity perpendicular structural sections are calculated respectively, and parameterized processing is conducted on the average relative reflectivity perpendicular structural sections; a multi-element linear forest above-ground biomass estimation model is established according to multiple obtained parameters, and the forest above-ground biomass of the polygon forest stands is calculated through the multi-element linear forest above-ground biomass estimation model. According to the technical scheme, the forest above-ground biomass can be more accurately estimated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to forest aboveground biomass estimation technology, in particular to a forest aboveground biomass estimation method and device. Background technique [0002] Forest is one of the important resources on earth, and the estimation of forest above ground biomass (AGB) is very important for understanding and protecting forest resources. [0003] At present, there are two main methods for forest aboveground biomass estimation: the first is to estimate forest aboveground biomass based on microwave backscatter coefficient or albedo in optical remote sensing; the second is to estimate forest aboveground biomass based on forest height. The growth equation was used to estimate forest aboveground biomass. [0004] The inventors found in the process of realizing the present invention that the problem of signal saturation will have a greater impact on the estimation accuracy of forest aboveground biomass in the first method, while the second ...
