In a crop identification method, multi-temporal sample remote sensing images labeled with first planting blocks of a specific crop are acquired. NDVI data of the sample remote sensing images are calculated. Noise of the NDVI data is reduced. A first multivariate Gaussian model is fitted based on de-noised NDVI data of the sample remote sensing image. Multi-temporal target remote sensing images are acquired. An NDVI time series of each pixel in the target remote sensing image is constructed. The NDVI time series is input to the first multivariate Gaussian model to obtain a likelihood value of each pixel displaying the specific crop in the remote sensing images. Second planting blocks of the specific crop in the target remote sensing images are determined accordingly. An accurate and robust identification result is thereby achieved.

Crop identification method and computing device

A cultivated land recognition method in a satellite image includes: segmenting a satellite image of the Earth into a plurality of standard images; and recognizing cultivated land area in each of the standard images using a cultivated land recognition model to obtain a plurality of first images. Edges of ground level entities in each of the standard images are detected using an edge detection model to obtain a plurality of second images. Each of the first images and a corresponding one of the second images is merged to obtain a plurality of third images; and cultivated land images is obtained by segmenting each of the third images using a watershed segmentation algorithm. Not only can a result of recognizing cultivated land in satellite images of the Earth be improved, but an efficiency of recognizing the cultivated land also be improved. A computing device employing the method is also disclosed.
