Soybean mapping in Indian context is challenging owing to its short growing period coinciding with the monsoon clouds, inter-cropping and smallholders’ land. This study proposes an approach for mapping soybean by integrating object-based image analysis with machine learning (ML) based classification using temporal Sentinel-1 SAR (S-1) and Sentinel-2 optical (S-2) data. Field objects were delineated with scale-optimized multi-resolution segmentation using historical S-2 data. Object-based temporal VH-backscatter and NDVI were extracted for training, validation and testing of the three ML models. Validation results showed the outperformance of Extreme gradient boosting (OB-XGBoost) over Random Forest (OB-RF) and Support vector machine (OB-SVM) with an overall accuracy (OA) of 92.50, 91.08 and 90.1, respectively. Testing of OB-XGBoost model resulted in OA, kappa statistics, and F-score (soybean) of 86.12%, 0.82, and 87.23%, respectively. The soybean map produced by the proposed methodology has shown better representation in terms of homogeneity and uniformity than the pixel-based classification.
