Open surface freshwater is an important resource for terrestrial ecosystems. However, climate change, seasonal precipitation cycling, and anthropogenic activities add high variability to its availability. Thus, timely and accurate mapping of open surface water is necessary. In this study, a methodology based on the concept of spatial autocorrelation was developed for automatic water extraction from Landsat series images using Taihu Lake in south-eastern China as an example. The results show that this method has great potential to extract continuous open surface water automatically, even when the water surface is covered by floating vegetation or algal blooms. The results also indicate that the second shortwave-infrared band (SWIR2) band performs best for water extraction when water is turbid or covered by surficial vegetation. Near-infrared band (NIR), first shortwave-infrared band (SWIR1), and SWIR2 have consistent extraction success when the water surface is not covered by vegetation. Low filter image processing greatly overestimated extracted water bodies, and cloud and image salt and pepper issues have a large impact on water extraction using the methods developed in this study.
