摘要： Timely and accurate estimates of crop areas are critical to enhancing agriculture management and ensuring national food security. This study aims to combine remote-sensing data and an optimized spatial sampling scheme to improve the accuracy of crop area estimates and decrease the cost of crop surveys at a regional scale. This study focuses on winter wheat in Mengcheng County in Anhui Province, China. Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) Advanced Visible light and Near Infrared Radiometer (AVNIR)-2, and Landsat5 Thematic Mapper (TM) images from 2009 and 2010, respectively, are used to extract the winter wheat area and distribution. Additionally, a spatial sampling scheme was optimized by combining remotely sensed data, geographical information system (GIS), Geostatistics, and traditional sampling methods. The experimental results demonstrate that the variability in the proportion of winter wheat acreage in one sampling unit (PWS) increases with increasing sampling unit size. The PWS coefficient of variation (CV) varies from 32.75 to 43.46% among the eight sampling unit sizes. The spatial correlation thresholds of PWS increase with increasing sampling unit size. For small sampling unit sizes (500mx500m-2000mx2000m), the relative error and CV of the population extrapolation for the optimized sample layout are obviously lower than those of the simple random sampling method. For larger sampling unit sizes (2500mx2500m-4000mx4000m), the sample size is obviously lower for the optimized sample layout compared with that of the simple random sampling method, but there are no differences in the relative errors or CVs. By combining remote-sensing data and the optimized spatial sampling scheme, this research can improve the accuracy of crop area estimation at a regional scale.
