Thus, reclamation activities play an important role in land area extension. In recent years, reclamation projects have been active in eastern China. However, research on how to determine the initiation of reclamation activity remains very limited. Thus, a method of tracking reclamation activities was proposed in this study to analyze the coastline change due to human activities in Shanghai Lingang New City and Hangzhou Bay area. First, the reclamation area was extracted and separated into sea filling and sea enclosing. Next, the \u201cSEDIMENT\u201d signal track method and the \u201cEight-Neighborhood\u201d morphological method were used to track dissimilar reclamation types. The historical reclamation activities (including start time and end time) over the recent 30 years were also tracked and obtained. Experimental results indicated that the time tracker accuracy of reclamation activity can reach 83.8%. Thus, this study can provide a reference for tracking coastline change.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14030464","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,19]],"date-time":"2022-01-19T21:01:51Z","timestamp":1642626111000},"page":"464","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Tracking of Land Reclamation Activities Using Landsat Observations\u2014An Example in Shanghai and Hangzhou Bay"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Yuming","family":"Shi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430079, China"}]},{"given":"Chengquan","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geographical Sciences, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20770, USA"}]},{"given":"Shuo","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430079, China"}]},{"given":"Jianya","family":"Gong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430079, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"142","DOI":"10.1016\/j.rse.2006.06.018","article-title":"Land-cover change detection using multi-temporal MODIS NDVI data","volume":"105","author":"Lunetta","year":"2006","journal-title":"Remote Sens.
