LULC database updating from VHR images and LIDAR data using evidence theory

چکیده
Urban growth and the development of urban plans make cities grow and substantially alter, in relatively short time periods, their land covers and land uses (LULC). To take control of this urban growth, it is important to create and update the LULC database. In this work, a method to automatically extract land covers from satellite VHR imagery and LIDAR data is presented. This method is based on the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. The efficiency of this method is tested in three test sites in the Spanish city of Gijón. The provided results are compared with the SIOSE database in order to determine changes in the LULC.

Urban Building Collapse Detection Using Very High Resolution Imagery and Airborne Lidar Data
The increasing availability of very high resolution (VHR) remotely sensed images makes it possible to detect and assess urban building damages in the aftermath of earthquake disasters by using these data. However, the accuracy obtained using spectral features from VHR data alone is comparatively low, since both undamaged and collapsed buildings are spectrally similar. The height information pro...
متن کاملSemantic segmentation of forest stands of pure species combining airborne lidar data and very high resolution multispectral imagery
Forest stands are the basic units for forest inventory and mapping. Stands are defined as large forested areas (e.g., ≥ 2ha) of homogeneous tree species composition and age. Their accurate delineation is usually performed by human operators through visual analysis of very high resolution (VHR) infra-red images. This task is tedious, highly time consuming, and should be automated for scalability...

متن کاملObject-Based Crop Species Classification Based on the Combination of Airborne Hyperspectral Images and LiDAR Data
Identification of crop species is an important issue in agricultural management. In recent years, many studies have explored this topic using multi-spectral and hyperspectral remote sensing data. In this study, we perform dedicated research to propose a framework for mapping crop species by combining hyperspectral and Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data in an object-based image analysis (O...
متن کاملAn Updating System for the Gridded Population Database of China Based on Remote Sensing, GIS and Spatial Database Technologies
The spatial distribution of population is closely related to land use and land cover (LULC) patterns on both regional and global scales. Population can be redistributed onto geo-referenced square grids according to this relation. In the past decades, various approaches to monitoring LULC using remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have been developed, which makes it possible f...
