Abstract

Color-infrared (CIR) aerial photography, CIR aerial digital imagery, and high resolution QuickBird multispectral satellite imagery were evaluated for distinguishing and mapping black mangrove mangrove [Avicennia germinans (L.) L.] populations along the lower Texas gulf coast. Accuracy assessments performed on classified maps of photographic and digital images of the same study site had both producer's and user's accuracies of 100% for black mangrove. In an accuracy assessment performed on a classified map of a digital image only of a second study site, black mangrove had a producer's accuracy of 78.6% and a user's accuracy of 100%. In a classification of the satellite image, black mangrove had a producer's accuracy of 100% and a user's accuracy of 85.7%.
