As the important component of soil, soil organic matter not only provides every nutrient element for crop, but also has
determinant effect for forming of soil structure and melioration the soil physical character. Mapping and dating soil
organic matter is of great importance in soil use and evaluation. In this study we examine the feasibility of soil organic
matter content by using Hyperspectrally reflective remote sensing methodology. This technique was tested in Xiaochang
County located in Hubei province. The soil reflectance properties of samples were measured in the laboratory by ASD
field spectrometer. The correlation analysis related with organic matter content was processed from three factors: the
spectral reflectance parameter ((lgρ)', ρ/
ρ450-750 and (1/lgρ623)'/ (1/lgρ564)'). The results show that the correlation
coefficients of r values were: organic matter identification index (ρ/
ρ450-750) > logarithmic first derivative of reflectivity
((lgρ)') > organic matter mix identification index ((1/lgρ623)'/(1/lgρ564)'). Knowing these correlations we were able to
use the best prominence correlation of organic matter identification index of 1850nm wavelength as the variable
regression to build up statistical regression analysis. We used five model types (Linear Function, Logarithmic Function,
Quadratic Function, Power Function and Exponential Function) to forecast the soil organic matter content Hyperion
model. The accuracy assessment (R2= 0.8484) by relating forecasted organic matter values with Quadratic Function
regression showed that the model is reliable and significantly correlative with known stabilization processes throughout
the study area. The quantitative methodology developed in this study for refutations soil organic matter content can be
adapted to other regions throughout the world.
