<![CDATA[The preliminary study using Landsat ETM+ to estimate the rice production in Regency of Tabanan, Bali Province was conducted. The objectives of this study were to know spectral characteristic of rice plant in three importance growth periods of rice, and to develop a model to identify the distribution of rice. Landsat ETM+ in two acquisition dates (March 21st, 2003 and May 24*, 2003) were used in this study. Characteristics of rice were analyzed using radiance value of Landsat ETM+ obtained from converting digital number of Landsat data. Multi-variable linear regression analysis was developed to classify the rice in its growth period. The result showed that the rice plant has different reflectance in seedling-development period, ear differentiation period and maturation period. It isexpressed by the radiance value of Landsat ETM+. However, spectral characteristic of rice in each band of Landsat ETM+ is similar to the green vegetations in general, except in blueband (Bl). Based on statistical analysis, the classification of rice in each its growth period can be classified.]]>
