![]() ![]() A further cross-product comparison in terms of accuracy assessment, correlations with statistics, and spatial details indicated the precision and robustness of CACD than other datasets. The pixel-wise F1 scores for annual maps and change maps of CACD were 0.79☐.02 and 0.81, respectively. Results demonstrated that our approach was capable of tracking dynamic cropland changes in different agricultural zones. We implemented the proposed scheme to a cloud computing platform of Google Earth Engine and generated China’s annual cropland dataset (CACD) at a 30 m spatial resolution for the first time. Here we developed a novel cost-effective annual cropland mapping framework that integrated time-series Landsat imagery, automated training sample generation, and machine learning and change detection techniques. However, because of the complexity of agricultural landscapes and lack of sufficient training samples, it remains challenging to monitor cropland dynamics at high spatial and temporal resolutions across large geographical extents, especially for places where agricultural land use is changing dramatically. Accurate, detailed, and up-to-date information on cropland extent is crucial for provisioning food security and environmental sustainability.
