9 Experiential/ Operational Mapping Experimental and operational classifications are two different approaches for large area land cover mapping and monitoring (Hansen and Loveland, 2012). Operational : development and delivery of reliable data products within a pre-defined time schedule. Experimental development and performance testing of novel algorithms and models Challenges raised by the Global Scale 30m GLC mapping project Data products for 2010 and

10 Three Major Challenges from Global Scale Local Scale Data Acquisition Easy access of remotely Difficult access of sensed data with full remotely sensed data with coverage global coverage Data Processing Consistent acquisition season, being easy for geometric and radiometric correction Land Cover Classification Sampling and Validation Classification scheme Global Scale Single classifier is enough Various acquisition season, arising difficulty in geometric and radiometric correction Single classifier is not widely applicable Low cost for acquiring High cost for sampling, training and test samples and samples are generally incomplete Available scheme could Not only satisfy the be selected from existing requirement of global schemes under specific change research, but also requirement be crosswalkable to existing schemes Major Challenges 1. Geometric and radiometric reconstruction for global 30m imagery coverage 2. Appropriate classifiers for handling spectral confusion and diversity 3. Assurance of data product quality

11 POK based Operational Approach RS imagery Global coverage of qualified 30m imagery Reduction of omission and commission errors Optimal Earth surface Ancillary data Processing multi-type imagery Reliability Web-based ancillary data and service Integrating pixel and object classifiers Knowledge -based quality controlling Operational Mapping Approach feasible suitability Solving the problems related to e characterization of complex landscapes Chen Jun, et/.al., Global Land Cover Mapping at 30m Resolution: a POK-based Operational Approach ISPRS Journal of Photogramme try and Remote Sensing, 103 (2015): 7-27

12 Integrating Pixel OK-based Classification Approach Per-class extraction Pixel-based classification Object-based Identification Knowledge-based verification Decomposing into per-class classification and then integrating the results Combining computer classification and expert knowledge for handling spectral confusion and diversity across the globe
