comparison of digital classification products and its accuracy in land cover classifications of part of mosul city

Abstract

An efficient scheme of digital classification method was executed and implemented. The scheme can be applied to any area which contains multispectral images. The application of this scheme is depended on a colored aerial photograph of a part of mosul city, duo to the good spatial resolution of this type of data compared to the available satellite images. The result have proven the efficiency of hybrid classification compared to supervised classification. The study has also shown the importance of visual interpretation and the supervised classification in modifying the selected training areas.
