This study presents a geographic object-based image analysis approach using a random forest algorithm to classify large-area land use and land cover. The approach achieves high accuracy in classifying a mosaic of orthoimagery in central Texas by considering the spatial structure of sample data. The study demonstrates a cost-effective way to generate an accurate multi-class land use/land cover map using high-spatial/low-spectral resolution orthoimagery.
Large-area land use land cover (lulc) mapping using high-resolution imagery remains challenging due to radiometric differences between scenes, the low spectral depth of the imagery, landscape heterogeneity, and computational limitations. Using a random forest (RF)-supervised machine-learning algorithm, we present a geographic object-based image analysis approach to classifying a large mosaic of 220 National Agriculture Imagery Program orthoimagery into lulc categories. The approach was applied in central Texas, usa, covering over 6000 km(2). We generated 36 variables for each object and accounted for spatial structures of sample data to determine the distance at which samples were spatially independent. The final rf model produced 94.8% accuracy on independent stratified random samples. In addition, vegetation and water indices, the mean and standard deviation of principal components, and texture features improved classification accuracy. This study demonstrates a cost-effective way of producing an accurate multi-class land use/land cover map using high-spatial/low-spectral resolution orthoimagery.
