Motivation
• Food Security
• >40% of calorie intake in South Asian
countries
• single most important food crop in
Asia
• stable demand as food crop even with
dietary change
• Trade
• production volume, market price, food
security interact
• rice is a globally traded commodity
• Livelihoods
• ~75% of the worlds farms are in Asia,
of which 80% are smaller than 2 ha
• high environmental risk (drought,
flood, salinization)

Methodology
• combine results from time-series
of different sensors to reduce
data size
• ability to transfer to different rice
regions
• MODIS:
• high temporal resolution
• global coverage
• moderate data size
• free, open access
• Sentinel-1:
• high spatial resolution
• unaffected by cloud cover
• sensitive to surface water
• free, open access

Rice Area Detection from Time-Series
• rice fields are commonly
flooded prior to
transplanting/seeding
• water level is maintained
throughout the growing cycle
• emergence, horizontal and
vertical growth influences
spectral and microwave
response
• flooding and phenological
growing stages of rice create
a distinct temporal footprint
time-series data

• large area rice mapping is possible with remote sensing time-series
• frequent cloud cover in rice growing regions requires high revisit time of multi-
spectral sensors
• SAR time-series enable high resolution rice mapping in cloud prone regions
• require frequent coverage over large areas
• seasonality extraction depends on temporal density of time-series
• combined approach reduces data and can aid towards current, high resolution
rice area mapping at large scale
• large scale mapping is limited by calibration/validation, not EO data
