Abstract
In this paper pixel-based and object-oriented classifications were investigated for land-cover mapping in an urban area. Since the image fusion methods are playing a useful role in supplying classification different fusion approaches such as Gram-Schmidt Transform (GS), Principal Component Transform (PC), Haar wavelet, and A Trous Wavelet Transform (ATWT) algorithms have been used and the fused image with the best quality has been assessed on its respected classification. A Hyperion image and IRS-PAN image covering a region near Tehran, Iran have been used to demonstrate the enhancement and accuracy assessment of fused image over the initial images. The evaluation results of fused images showed that the Haar wavelet approach has good quality in preserving spectral information as well as spatial information. Classification results were compared to evaluate the effectiveness of the two classification approaches. Result of the pan-sharpened image classifications displayed that the object-oriented procedure presented more accurate outcomes (90.47 %) than those obtained by pixel-based classification method (77.33 %).
