Burned Area Mapping in Greece Using SPOT-4 HRVIR Images and Object-Based Image Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The devastating series of fire events that occurred during the summers of 2007 and 2009 in Greece made evident the need for an operational mechanism to map burned areas in an accurate and timely fashion to be developed. In this work, Système pour l’Observation de la Terre (SPOT)-4 HRVIR images are introduced in an object-based classification environment in order to develop a classification procedure for burned area mapping. The development of the procedure was based on two images and then tested for its transferability to other burned areas. Results from the SPOT-4 HRVIR burned area mapping showed very high classification accuracies (~0.86 kappa coefficient), while the object-based classification procedure that was developed proved to be transferable when applied to other study areas.

Multispectral classification, one of the most commonly used methods for mapping burned areas, is based on the spectral properties of different classes of interest and employs special algorithms designed to perform various types of spectral analysis. However, the use of these classifications has been repeatedly reported to create confusion between burned areas and nonvegetation categories, espec...

In a classical approach, optical data are being used for forest fire detection in a rush mode. Difficulties arise due to persistent cloud coverage, haze layers and smoke plumes. In contrast, radar measurements offer high acquisition rates because of their ability to penetrate clouds and their independence of sun illumination. However, a visual interpretation of radar data is generally less intu...
