Digital Image Classication of Land Cover

Classication of land cover represents a quite standard example of natural fuzzy boundaries between phenomena: many classes show in nature internal gradual diferences in species, health, age, moisture, as well other factors. It is unrealistic to establish a line between diferent classes, assuming hom...

Sumario:Classication of land cover represents a quite standard example of natural fuzzy boundaries between phenomena: many classes show in nature internal gradual diferences in species, health, age, moisture, as well other factors. It is unrealistic to establish a line between diferent classes, assuming homogeneous diferent phenomena in each side. In this paper we consider the unsupervised algorithm presented in Amo et al. [2], applied to a real image in Sevilla province (south Spain). As expected, image is easier to be understood taking into account few fuzzy classes and all their transition zones, rather than assuming a large family of crisp classes showing no structure between those classes.
