Abstract

Floodings in Mexico generated economic and human losses in recent years, so it is necessary to use all possible tools that can help the government to reduce all these disasters, especially human losses. Therefore, a Graphical User Interface (GUI) was developed in Matlab for the segmentation and classification of vegetation, water and city in multispectral images obtained from the Landsat 8 satellite with the intention of detecting floods and vulnerable zones of flooding. The interface performs a feature extraction, segmentation, classification, validation and visualization of the final results obtained through basic segmentation algorithms such as the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), in addition to performing the segmentation with one of the artificial intelligence methodologies most used in the state of the art: support vector machine (SVM) and the proposal of SVM with the k-nearest neighbors as an improvement to the algorithm.
