Selection of spectral features for land cover type classification

作者:

Highlights:

• A selection scheme for spectral features has been proposed.

• Classification performance has been evaluated using four types of classifiers.

• True Skill Statistics, a unified performance metric, has been employed.

• Features have been ranked using Condorcet ranking.

• Even with only three features, a classification score of 81.84% has been obtained.
