Résumé
As an important part of the ecosystem, green vegetation coverage is crucial to people's sensory and mental health. Using reliable data sets to classify and identify the green vegetation cover on the land surface and explore its spatial distribution law can provide important reference for the work of regional ecosystem managers and urban planners. The optimization of effective screening methods for green vegetation coverage areas is an important requirement to measure the surface vegetation status. UAV aerial images feature high definition, large scale, small area and high up-to-dateness. However, at present, there are few studies based on the reliable UAV aerial image system to identify green vegetation cover and further explore its spatial changes. In this study, 701 residential neighborhoods in Beijing were taken as the research objects, and the green vegetation of 7,695 sample points was identified by UAV. The green vegetation coverage was measured, and the spatial distribution pattern of green vegetation in different land surface areas was quantitatively compared. The results show that the image processing method proposed in this paper can effectively detect the boundary of green vegetation cover area from UAV aerial images, the correlation of texture segmentation is good, and the segmentation performance is better than other methods. The distribution of green vegetation cover in the research target area is uneven, with 63.79% of the research area having relatively low (Level 2) and medium (Level 3) green vegetation coverage, which indicates that the green vegetation coverage area in the research area is insufficient to meet the needs of regional ecosystem development. The characteristics of green vegetation cover in 16 districts in the study area are different, showing different spatial distribution patterns;except Xicheng District, there are 211 points without landscape in the area covered by green vegetation in 15 districts. The results can provide support for urban land surface planning and management.
