Short summary
This study uses temporal synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and optical imagery to conduct rice-mapping experiments in 34 African countries with rice-planting areas exceeding 5000 ha in 2022, achieving a 20 m resolution spatial distribution mapping for 2023. The average classification accuracy based on the validation set exceeded 85 %, and the R2; values for linear fitting with existing statistical data all surpassed 0.9, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed mapping method.
