Urban landcover features identification utilizing multiband combinations and multi-level image segmentation for objectbased classification / Nurhanisah Hashim

Urban area refers to cities which have highly heterogeneous objects with complex landscape. Variation land-cover features, which include natural and man-made objects, lead to the advent of features that are spectrally very similar. For example, trees and grass as well as building roofs and roads oft...

Variation land-cover features, which include natural and man-made objects, lead to the advent of features that are spectrally very similar. For example, trees and grass as well as building roofs and roads often have similar spectral response that always had been misclassified yet difficult to distinguish. The complexness of urban features require high spatial as well as high spectral resolution image especially when trying to extract the land-cover objects.

Using Worldview-2 multispectral satellite image as a primary data, together with ancillary data which include normalized Digital Surface Model (nDSM) derived from Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data and indices layer, the image segmentation process utilizing multiresolution segmentation algorithm was conducted.
