However, this has proven to be challenging due to two main issues: first, the lack of optimised approaches for accurate crop phenology retrievals, and second, the cloud cover during the crop growth period, which hampers the use of optical data. Hence, in the current study, we outline a novel calibration procedure that optimises the settings to produce high-quality NDVI time series as well as the thresholds for retrieving the start of the season (SOS) and end of the season (EOS) of different crops, making them more comparable and related to ground crop phenological measures. As a first step, we introduce a new method, termed UE-WS, to reconstruct high-quality NDVI time series data by integrating a robust upper envelope detection technique with the Whittaker smoothing filter. The experimental results demonstrate that the new method can achieve satisfactory performance in reducing noise in the original NDVI time series and producing high-quality NDVI profiles. As a second step, a threshold optimisation approach was carried out for each phenophase of three crops (winter wheat, corn, and sugarbeet) using an optimisation framework, primarily leveraging the state-of-the-art hyperparameter optimization method (Optuna) by first narrowing down the search space for the threshold parameter and then applying a grid search to pinpoint the optimal value within this refined range. This process focused on minimising the error between the satellite-derived and observed days of the year (DOY) based on data from the German Meteorological Service (DWD) covering two years (2019\u20132020) and three federal states in Germany. The results of the calculation of the median of the temporal difference between the DOY observations of DWD phenology held out from a separate year (2021) and those derived from satellite data reveal that it typically ranged within \u00b110 days for almost all phenological phases. The validation results of the detection of dates of phenological phases against separate field-based phenological observations resulted in an RMSE of less than 10 days and an R-squared value of approximately 0.9 or greater. The findings demonstrate how optimising the thresholds required for deriving crop-specific phenophases using high-quality NDVI time series data could produce timely and spatially explicit phenological information at the field and crop levels.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16173183","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,28]],"date-time":"2024-08-28T11:54:10Z","timestamp":1724846050000},"page":"3183","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Towards Optimising the Derivation of Phenological Phases of Different Crop Types over Germany Using Satellite Image Time Series"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5210-9732","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdelaziz","family":"Htitiou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Julius K\u00fchn Institute (JKI), Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants, Institute for Crop and Soil Science, Bundesallee 58, 38116 Braunschweig, Germany"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1918-7747","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Markus","family":"M\u00f6ller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Julius K\u00fchn Institute (JKI), Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants, Institute for Crop and Soil Science, Bundesallee 58, 38116 Braunschweig, Germany"}]},{"given":"Tanja","family":"Riedel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Julius K\u00fchn Institute (JKI), Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants, Institute for Strategies and Technology Assessment, Stahnsdorfer Damm 81, 14532 Kleinmachnow, Germany"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9203-320X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Florian","family":"Beyer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Julius K\u00fchn Institute (JKI), Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants, Institute for Crop and Soil Science, Bundesallee 58, 38116 Braunschweig, Germany"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5042-8548","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Heike","family":"Gerighausen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Julius K\u00fchn Institute (JKI), Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants, Institute for Crop and Soil Science, Bundesallee 58, 38116 Braunschweig, Germany"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Lieth, H.
