COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENT BETWEEN PER-PIXEL AND OBJECT-ORIENTED FOR MAPPING LAND COVER AND USE

ABSTRACT: The traditional per-pixel classification methods consider only spectral information, and may be limited. Object-based classifiers, however, also consider shape and texture, firstly segmenting the image, and then classifying individual objects. Thus, a Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) was compared in conjunction with data mining techniques and a traditional per-pixel method.
