摘要: With the development of urbanization in the world, dealing with the problems caused by urban expansion is becoming more and more important. The data that need to be processed in urbanization studies have increased with the improvement of the spatial and temporal resolution of remote sensing satellites, exerting considerable pressure on traditional software used for landscape index computation. In this article, an improved landscape index-computing algorithm is proposed. Based on CULA, a pixel-group parallelization strategy is adopted to optimize the algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm increases the efficiency by more than a factor of three as the amount of data to be processed increases to 50 million pixels, thus providing a new way to calculate large-scale landscape index values on personal computers to study urbanization.
