Abstract
Monitoring burned areas in Thailand and other tropical countries during the post-harvest season is becoming increasingly important. High-resolution remote sensing data from Sentinel-2 satellites, which have a short revisit time, is ideal for accurately and efficiently mapping burned regions. However, automating the mapping of agriculture residual on a national scale is challenging due to the volume of information and level of detail involved. In this study, a Sentinel-2A Level-1C Multispectral Instrument image (MSI) from February 27, 2018 was combined with object-based image analysis (OBIA) algorithms to identify burned areas in Mae Chaem, Chom Thong, Hod, Mae Sariang, and Mae La Noi Districts in Chiang Mai, Thailand. OBIA techniques were used to classify forest, agricultural, water bodies, newly burned, and old burned regions. The segmentation scale parameter value of 50 was obtained using only the original Sentinel-2A band in red, green, blue, near infrared (NIR), and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The accuracy of the produced maps was assessed using an existing burned area dataset, and the burned area identified through OBIA was found to be 85.2% accurate compared to 500 random burned points from the dataset. These results suggest that the combination of OBIA and Sentinel-2A with a 10 m spatial resolution is very effective and promising for the process of burned area mapping.
