The purpose of this study is to examine the use of multi-resolution object-based classification methods for the classification of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) images of wetland vegetation and to compare its performance with pixel-based classification approaches. Three types of classifiers (Support Vector Machine, Artificial Neural Network and Maximum Likelihood) were utilized to classify the object-based images, the original 8-cm UAS images and the down-sampled (30 cm) version of the image. The results of the object-based and two pixel-based classifications were evaluated and compared. Object-based classification produced higher accuracy than pixel-based classifications if the same type of classifier is used. Our results also showed that under the same classification scheme (i.e. object or pixel), the Support Vector Machine classifier performed slightly better than Artificial Neural Network, which often yielded better results than Maximum Likelihood. With an overall accuracy of 70.78%, object-based classification using Support Vector Machine showed the best performance. This study also concludes that while UAS has the potential to provide flexible and feasible solutions for wetland mapping, some issues related to image quality still need to be addressed in order to improve the classification performance.
