résumé

Spatiotemporal fusion is a feasible way to provide synthetic satellite images with high spatial and high temporal resolution simultaneously. In recent years, some efficient STF methods based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been developed. However, these methods require a significant number of training image pairs, where each pair generally consists of a high spatial resolution image and a low spatial resolution image. Such a requirement limits the applicability of STF methods to actual scenarios because image pairs for training are not widely available in many cases. To overcome this important limitation, we introduce a CNN-based single image pair method for STF of remotely sensed images. Our method, called SS-CNN, uses the spatial information provided by the average image (obtained across available spectral bands) of the high spatial resolution image to perform CNN-based Super-Resolution Mapping (SRM) between the low and high spatial resolution images. The proposed SS-CNN has been tested in experiments using two simulated and one real dataset and compared with two commonly used spatiotemporal fusion methods. The experimental results show that SS-CNN can predict the phenological changes and land cover changes well. Plus, its performance in heterogeneous areas is remarkable. The disadvantage is that it will slightly blur the boundary, which needs to be further improved in the future.
