Crop type mapping provides essential information to control and make decisions related to agricultural practices and their regulations. To map crop types accurately, it is important to capture their phenological stages and fine spatial details, especially in a temporally and spatially heterogeneous landscape. The data availability of new generation multispectral sensors of Landsat-8 (L8) and Sentinel-2 (S2) satellites offers unprecedented options for such applications. Given this, our study aims to display how the synergistic use of these optical sensors can efficiently support crop type mapping research while integrating an object-based image analysis (OBIA). Through the applied methods, we used the enhanced spatial and temporal adaptive reflectance fusion model (ESTARFM) and the flexible spatiotemporal data-fusion model (FSDAF) to blend L8 and S2 data and obtain reliable normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) datasets with fine spatial and temporal resolution. Then the crop phenological information was extracted using a Savitzky–Golay filter and fused NDVI time series. Finally, a model combining phenological metrics and fused reconstructed NDVI as classification features was developed using a random forest (RF) classifier/OBIA approach. The results show that the FSDAF method creates more accurate fused NDVI and keeps more spatial details than ESTARFM. The FSDAF model was then used to create fused, high-resolution time-series products that were able to extract crop phenology in single-crop fields while providing a very detailed pattern relative to that from individual sensor time-series data. Moreover, combined L8 and S2 data by FSDAF produced highly significant overall classification accuracies (90.03% for pixel-based RF to 93.12% OBIA RF), outperforming individual sensor use (82.57% for L8-only; 88.45% for S2-only). Our proposed workflow highlights the advantage of spatiotemporal fusing and OBIA environment in spatiotemporally heterogeneous areas and fragmented landscapes, which represents a promising step toward generating fast, accurate, and ready-to-use agricultural data products.
