Abstract

The choice of the best classification approach for thematic map generation relies on many factors, such as image resolution and minimum mapping unit. The generalized GIS-ready products derived from the results of pixel-based approaches and the availability of higher-resolution imagery have directed research towards object-based classification approaches. In this paper we present the superior performance of a hybrid methodology that combines the results of automatic segmentation with the land cover information derived from a pixel classification by means of the Winner Takes All (WTA) algorithm. Land use and land cover results obtained through this hybrid classification approach are compared with those of a One Against All (OAA) object-oriented classification approach.
