The combination of multisource remote sensing and geographic data is believed to offer improved accuracies in land cover classification. For such classification, the conventional parametric statistical classifiers, which have been applied successfully in remote sensing for the last two decades, are not appropriate, since a convenient multivariate statistical model does not exist for the data. In this paper, several single and multiple classifiers, that are appropriate for the classification of multisource remote sensing and geographic data are considered. The focus is on multiple classifiers: bagging algorithms, boosting algorithms, and consensus-theoretic classifiers. These multiple classifiers have different characteristics. The performance of the algorithms in terms of accuracies is compared for two multisource remote sensing and geographic datasets. In the experiments, the multiple classifiers outperform the single classifiers in terms of overall accuracies.
