| Summary: | Accurately extracting parcels from satellite images is crucial in precision agriculture. Traditional edge detection fails in complex scenes with difficult post-processing, and deep learning models are time-consuming in terms of sample preparation and less transferable. Based on this, we designed a method combining multi-resolution remote sensing images based on the Segment Anything Model (SAM). Using cropland masking, overlap prediction and post-processing, we achieved 10 m-resolution parcel extraction with SAM, with performance in plain areas comparable to existing deep learning models (P: 0.89, R: 0.91, F1: 0.91, IoU: 0.87). Notably, in hilly regions with fragmented cultivated land, our approach even outperformed these models (P: 0.88, R: 0.76, F1: 0.81, IoU: 0.69). Subsequently, the 10 m parcels results were utilized to crop the high-resolution image. Based on the histogram features and internal edge features of the parcels, used to determine whether to segment downward or not, and at the same time, by setting the adaptive parameters of SAM, sub-meter parcel extraction was finally realized. Farmland boundaries extracted from high-resolution images can more accurately characterize the actual parcels, which is meaningful for farmland production and management. This study extended the application of deep learning large models in remote sensing, and provided a simple and fast method for accurate extraction of parcels boundaries. |
