Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the spatial-temporal pattern of vegetation coverage and driving factors in Bayi district, using pixel dichotomy model and correlation analysis methods, from Landsat time series images between 1990 and 2019 based on GEE platform. Research results show: ①The overall trend on vegetation coverage emerged as an approximate stability with a little increasing, among which the valley regions increased significantly while the high mountain regions is relatively stable. ②Temperature in Bayi district increased significantly whereas the precipitation decreased slightly, demonstrating a “warm and dry” feature. The response of vegetation coverage to precipitation is stronger than temperature, but however the relationship between climate change and vegetation coverage is not significant generally. ③A good relationship is found between human activities and vegetation cover, where the non-high vegetation coverage areas presented in significant negative correlation while the high vegetation coverage areas had positive correlation. The proposed methods of dynamic monitoring on vegetation coverage and quantitative analysis using remote sensing big data and geographic cloud computing, can provide technical support and scientific data for ecological assessment and evolution analysis over alpine canyon region.
