In this study, a vis-NIR (visual Near Infra Red) hyperspectral remote sensing system for UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) was used to analyze the type and presence of vegetation and soil of typical desertified grassland in Inner Mongolia using a DBN (Deep Belief Network), 2D CNN (2D Convolutional Neural Network) and 3D CNN (3D Convolutional Neural Network).The results show that these typical deep learning models can effectively classify hyperspectral data on desertified grassland features. The highest classification accuracy was achieved by 3D CNN, with an overall accuracy of 86.36%. This study enriches the spatial scale of remote sensing research on grassland desertification, and provides a basis for further high-precision statistics and inversion of remote sensing of grassland desertification.
