Incorporating interpreter variability into estimation of the total variance of land cover area estimates under simple random sampling

Stephen V. Stehman et al.

Summary: Area estimates of land cover and land cover change are often determined by analysts interpreting satellite imagery and aerial photography. However, there is variability in the reference class labels assigned by different interpreters to the same sample units, which is not usually considered in variance estimators. By using a simple measurement model and repeated measurements by independent analysts, it was found that interpreter variance can significantly contribute to the total variance, and the standard variance estimator may underestimate the total variance due to this variability. The repeated measurements approach offers a practical way to incorporate interpreter variability into the total variance estimator, highlighting the importance of accounting for interpreter variance in land cover area estimation.
