INTRODUCTION
Background
Remote sensing data can offer a powerful information source on vegetation
parameters, which are needed in all sort models describing processes at the
Earth’s surface. This research is using active sensor type of remote sensing,there
is Laser Light Detection and Ranging (Lidar). Mapping technology utilizes a laser
light detection and ranging (lidar) system and an airborne navigation system that
accurately tracks platform location and attitude to produce a dense array of
geographic coordinates from points where laser pulses are reflected off a surface.1
Lidar has grown in popularity for remote sensing from airborne platforms. It
works on the same principle as radar with pulses of laser light, which are
illuminate the Earth’s surface. The conventional version of lidar requires a laser
transmitter to launch short pulses of coherent light, and scattered from terrestrial
targets. Then records the return time to calculate based on the distance between a
sensor and the Earth’s surface.2
In each case, lidar systems possessing different wavelengths are selected to
record the elevation or depth (in bathymetric applications) of features. Typically,
lidar operates within eye-safe ranges and power levels in the visible and near- to
short-wave infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum by using laser.
The laser pulse does not travel with the speed of light,but with a packet
velocity of the coherent light packet, which is a little less than the speed of
light.3Since the packet velocity of the laser pulse can be considered invariant for
the distances commonly used ALS (Airbone Laser Scanning) practise, this return
time measurement can easily be converted to a distance by multiplying it with the
speed of the light packet.
Characteristic wavelength of the optical signals dependence allows the
measurement of the vegetation parameter in the rice field. This characteristic
wavelength can be analyzed using the basic theory of electromagnetic wave. The
basic of physics concept for applied by remote sensing are a relationship with
light speed, wavelength, and frequency that usually used to describe travel energy
in the sinusoidal wave form.4
Wavelength that are low in energy will complicate the process of sensing
and sensors operating. Therefore these wavelengths are relative to the large area
viewed of the Earth’s surface in order to obtain a detectable energy signal.2
Effective use of an electromagnetic radiation measured by a sensor. It is
depend on understanding the physical processes that control the transmission of
the electromagnetic radiation from the source to the target. The intensity of the
lidar transmission is determined objects reflectance.
The spectrum of electromagnetic wave is commonly divided into region for
convenience and by tradition within the field of remote sensing. Electromagnetic
waves is used for remote sensing at ultraviolet (UV) to middle infrared (MIR)
wavelength.
Ultraviolet region (100-380 nm) is very narrow zone of electromagnetic
radiation that lies between the X-rays region and visible region. Visible region
(380-780 nm) is narrow but well-used region since the short wavelength are of

2

high frequency and high energy. Near infrared (780-1500 nm) start of the region
beyond the red wavelength. Its like the visible region, and frequently used in
remote sensing. Middle infrared comprises two main portion: shortwave infrared
(SWIR, 1500-3000 nm) and MIR (3000-5000). Middle infrared radiation
measured by sensors can comprise a mixed signal of reflected radiation and
radiation emitted from the earth's surface.5,6
Problem Formulation
Based on the background described, the author propose problem
formulation in this research is how can Lidar data estimate the wavelength of
paddy by using the physical basis formulation about electromagnetic energy?
Research Purpose
The purpose of this study is determine the wavelength of paddy using Lidar
data with the physical basis formulation about electromagnetic energyfor geting
rice field classification.

METHOD
Study Area
The study was conducted in a west Bayah in Banten, close to Cilograng
Street. (Appendix 1) The study site had been scanned by laser for study purposes
several time in 25 March 2012. Source of data taken from PT. ASI Pudjiastuti
Geosurvey as a Lidar data.
The Instrument of Research
Lidar data used the laser scanner surveys. This provided a point cloud were
taken by ALS 70 (Airbone Laser Scanning) and aerial photo captured by Leica
RCD30 Medium Format Camera. The both of that instrument were on the Piratus
Porter PC6 plane. The aerial photo and point cloud of lidar data can be analysis by
using the NEST and Fugro-viewer Software. The every area of the rice plot can be
get by using ArcMap Software.
Research Procedure
The method of this research cunducted to analyze aerial photo and point
cloud of lidar data by using the NEST and Fugro-viewer Software.The
classification of a rice field can be determine by using reflectance wavelength in
basic physics theory. The intensity of the lidar transmission which is determined
objects reflectance that be show by the NEST program. The Area of each rice
terraces can be show with Arcmap program. It is a variabel to find the wavelength
using electromagnetic energy formulation combine the power energy and travel
energy formulation.

Intensity of Reflectance
First, paddy fields divided into 10 different plots using digitization
system in the NEST program. (Appendix 2) In every each plot of paddy field, the
intensity analysis of reflectance value is using by NEST program. The point cloud
of lidar data can be show every point in the form of LAS format by using Fugroviewer software. Intensity value for each paddy plot is searching for the average,
median and standard deviation value. Based on those value which are not much
different form paddy plot can be grouped.
Physic Formulation
Electromagnetic radiation provides the link between each component of
remote sensing system. It is a form one target to another through space and media
and behaves in two inseparable ways: as regular waves of energy and as rapidly
moving and indivisible particles or photons.4 The former is described by the basic
wave theory that combine with power energy and travel energy formulation.
Power is the rate of energy conversion per unit of time.7 Power, P, is determined
by
(1)
In the system, intensity (I) develops when power is distributed over area.8
Specifically, intensity is equal to power per unit area, or power divided by area
(A), or, conversely
(2)
The unit of power is watt. Thus,
. 6,9

(3)

Now this equation can be rewritten in a slightly different form,
(4)
Quantum theory describes electromagnetic radiation as composed of many
discrete units called quanta or photon. The use of the basic wave and quantum
theory of electromagnetic radiation are complementary and useful for
understanding the physical basis of remote sensing.4The radiant energy is
expressed as,
(5)
where h = Planck's contant, 6.62 x 10-34 J sec, and c = the velocity of light, 3 x
108.
is a wavelength of the electromagnetic wave that can be get with
substituted equation (4) and (5), so
(6)

Since the packet velocity of the laser pulse can be considered invariant for
the distances commonly used ALS (Airbone Laser Scanning) practise, this return
time measurement can easily be converted to a distance by multiplying it with the
speed of the light packet:
(7)
Note the number two in the denominator, which is due to the fact that the
laser pulse travels the distance between scattering element and emitter/receiver
twice (Figure 1).
is a little less than the speed of light, but can in most
computations be exchanged for the real speed of the light. 3 Subtitue equation (6)

number of variables:4

The wavelength of band 1 has range of 620-780 nm with a red spectrum.
However the reflection for each paddy plot has a different range is 181-2525 nm
(Figure 3). This band serves to absorb chlorophyll, which can be used to help the
grouping of plants. Prediction of plant classification based on the absorption of

nm (Figure 5). Actually, this band is dedicated for water and vegetation
penetration as well as mapping for coastal and land.10 Its not very effective for
vegetation classification of a rice field but it more useful to water analysis in the
wet land.

The Classification of The Rice Field

Referring to the fundamental analysis, i.e. the impact of the LIDAR bands
on the results only, the following findings can be stated the value of each paddy
plot is not much different are B, E, D plot has a range in ultraviolet region until
visible region and A, C, and G plot that have a range in red spectrum until midlle
infrared but in the band 3 those plot just in the infrared region. The classification
in each paddy plot can be show in Table 3.

The previous researchers11 said that in the 21 days show the wavelength of
paddy from 649 nm until 665 nm.In this research, the paddy plot has a wavelength
in that region are plot B, plot E, plot D. Its means just plot B, plot E and plot D
has the value of wavelength is able to show the age of paddy is 21 days. This
analysis can be show another plot of paddy age. The age of paddy in the plot F has
a less days, before 21 days. Moreover, the another plot like plot A, plot C, plot G,
plot H, plot I, and plot J has a pass days, after 21 days but for plot A and C the age
of paddy is closer to that day.
The value of wavelength in 550 nm was related to chlorophyll content when
a paddy field can be regarded as a big leaf.12The paddy plot has a wavelength in
that region are plot B, plot E, plot D and plot F that have a more effective
chlorophyll content than another plot. In addition, the 554 nm band is located at
the green reflectance peak in the visible region, where chlorophyll reflection is
maximal.15
The wavelength at 675 nm corresponds to the absorption maximum of
chlorophyll a in the red spectrum.15The paddy plot has a wavelength in that region
are plot A, plot B,plot C, plot D and plot E that have a more effective chlorophyll
absorption than another plot.
Structural parameters play a key role in the incoming signal radiation
especially in the near-infrared region (>750 nm) where leaf reflectance is not
related to leaf chlorophyll but to leaf sructure.13The reflectance at 804, 849, and
1074 nm are mainly determined by the arrangement of cells within the mesophyll
layer of leaves and by canopy structure, especially the number of leaf layers along
the vertical. The 974 and 1219 nm bands are associated with narrow water
absorption regions, which are sensitive to moisture content in leaves.15The paddy
plot has a wavelength in that regionare plot A, plot B, plot C, and plot G that have
a active leaf structural parameters than another plot. The wavelength in 1219 nm
plot G, plot H and plot J that are sensitive to moisture content in leaves.
The wavelength at 1633 nm corresponds to the first overtone of N-H
absorption and the third overtone of NH 3 +NH deformation, in the short wave
infrared region, which is sensitive to lignin, and has been shown to be important
for vegetation parameter. The band at 2194 nm is located at the second peak of
SWIR region, and related to protein absorption.15The paddy plot has a wavelength

10

in that region are plot H, plot I and plot J that have a more sensitive to lignin and
protein absorption than another plot.
The value of wavelength in 2200 nm is to content of lignin, cellulose and
protein (enzyme). This enzyme is the most abundant nitrogen-bearing compound
in the green leaves and has a critical role in photosynthesis.12 The paddy plot has a
wavelength in that region are plot I and plot J that have a more effective
photosynthesis than another plot. However, in the band 2 that have green
spectrum for chlorophyll will likely be reflected, because in the process of
photosynthesis does not require energy in the green wavelength.14

CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
Conclusion
This present study shows a relation between the intensity of reflectance and
the reflectance wavelength of a rice field. The main feature of this relation is the
intensity of reflectance decreases as when the wavelength increases. This
corresponds with the physical basis formulation about electromagnetic energy that
have empirical equation of this relation has been proposed.
The classification of a rice field can be determine by using reflectance
wavelength. In this research, electromagnetic region of reflectance wavelength for
a rice field to all band are ultraviolet region, visible region, and near-infrared
until middle-infrared region. The wavelength of each paddy plot has arange of
170-3580 nm with all of lidar band in aerial photo.
The paddy age of plot B, plot D, and plot E are 21 days in the wavelength
from 570.55 nm to 566.01 nm and have effective chlorophyll content including
plot F in the wavelength from 550 to 554 where chlorophyll reflection is maximal.
Plot A,plot C, and plot G have the older age but the different is not really far. In
this age, paddy have a more effective chlorophyll absorption and sensitive to
moisture content in leaves.
The paddy age of plot H, plot I, and plot J has a pass days, after 21 days.
These plot have a more sensitive to lignin and protein absorption and have a
content of lignin, cellulose and protein (enzyme). This enzyme is the most
abundant nitrogen-bearing compound in the green leaves and has more effective
photosynthesis.
Suggestion
For the further research, it is can be done with the spesific research for the
application of the physic formulation. Moreover, it also can be analyzed by
satellite data with more large area. In addition, it can be useful for topography
detection in the rice field or in the another area.
