摘  要: High-spatial-resolution (HSR) images and high-temporal-resolution (HTR) images have their unique advantages and can be replenished by each other effectively. For land cover classification, a series of spatiotemporal fusion algorithms were developed to acquire a high-resolution land cover map. The fusion processes focused on the single level, especially the pixel level, could ignore the different phenology changes and land cover changes. Based on Bayesian decision theory, this paper proposes a novel decision-level fusion for multisensor data to classify the land cover. The proposed Bayesian fusion (PBF) combines the classification accuracy of results and the class allocation uncertainty of classifiers in the estimation of conditional probability, which consider the detailed spectral information as well as the various phenology information. To deal with the scale inconsistency problem at the decision level, an object layer and an area factor are employed for unifying the spatial resolution of distinct images, which would be applied for evaluating the classification uncertainty related to the conditional probability inference. The approach was verified on two cases to obtain the HSR land cover maps, in comparison with the implementation of two single-source classification methods and the benchmark fusion methods. Analyses and comparisons of the different classification results showed that PBF outperformed the best performance. The overall accuracy of PBF for two cases rose by an average of 27.8% compared with two single-source classifications, and an average of 13.6% compared with two fusion classifications. This analysis indicated the validity of the proposed method for a large area of complex surfaces, demonstrating the high potential for land cover classification.
