The water cycle around the globe is significantly impacted by the moisture in the soil. However, finding a quick and practical model to cope with the enormous amount of data is a difficult issue for remote sensing practitioners. The traditional methods of measuring soil moisture are inefficient at large sizes, which can be replaced by remote sensing techniques for obtaining soil moisture. While determining the soil moisture, the low return frequency of satellites and the lack of images pose a severe challenge to the current remote sensing techniques. Therefore, this paper suggested a novel technique for Soil Moisture Retrieval. In the initial phase, image acquisition is made. Then, VI indexes (NDVI, GLAI, Green NDVI (GNDVI), and WDRVI features) are derived. Further, an improved Water Cloud Model (WCM) is deployed as a vegetation impact rectification scheme. Finally, soil moisture retrieval is determined by the hybrid model combining Deep Max Out Network (DMN) and Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (Bi-GRU) schemes, whose outputs are then passed on to enhanced score level fusion that offers final results. According to the results, the RMSE of the Hybrid Classifier (Bi-GRU and DMN) method was lower (0.9565) than the RMSE of the Hybrid Classifier methods. The ME values of the HC (Bi-GRU and DMN) were also lower (0.728697) than those of the HC methods without the vegetation index, the HC methods without the presence of water clouds, and the HC methods with traditional water clouds. In comparison to HC (Bi-GRU and DMN), the HC method without vegetation index has a lower error of 0.8219 than the HC method with standard water cloud and the HC method without water cloud.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
