Classifiers for Vegetation and Forest Mapping with Low Resolution Multiespectral Imagery
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the evaluation of the performance of a set of classifiers on multispectral imagery with low dimensionality and low spatial and spectral resolutions. The original Landsat TM images and other 4 transformed sets are classified by 5 supervised and 2 unsupervised methods. The results for 7 land cover classes are compared and the performances of the methods for each set of input data are discussed.

Object-Based Classification of UltraCamD Imagery for Identification of Tree Species in the Mixed Planted Forest
This study is a contribution to assess the high resolution digital aerial imagery for semi-automatic analysis of tree species identification. To maximize the benefit of such data, the object-based classification was conducted in a mixed forest plantation. Two subsets of an UltraCam D image were geometrically corrected using aero-triangulation method. Some appropriate transformations were perfor...
متن کاملUAV Remote Sensing for Urban Vegetation Mapping Using Random Forest and Texture Analysis
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing has great potential for vegetation mapping in complex urban landscapes due to the ultra-high resolution imagery acquired at low altitudes. Because of payload capacity restrictions, off-the-shelf digital cameras are widely used on medium and small sized UAVs. The limitation of low spectral resolution in digital cameras for vegetation mapping can be re...

Abstract: Knowing the tree species combination of forests provides valuable information for studying the forest’s economic value, fire risk assessment, biodiversity monitoring, and wildlife habitat improvement. Fieldwork is often time-consuming and labor-required, free satellite data are available in coarse resolution and the use of manned aircraft is relatively costly. Recently, unmanned aeria...
متن کاملVegetation classification on Prathong Island, Phang Nga, Thailand
Habitat mapping as defined by plant communities is a common component of the planning and monitoring for conservation management. This study provided the test of two classifiers for producing the vegetation mapping in a tropical island. The selected area is Prathong Island, Phang Nga Province, Southern part of Thailand. The performance of the support vector machines (SVMs) image classification ...
