Object Based Classification using Arc Pro
Object Based Classification Using Arc Pro In a previous post we engaged in object based classification of multi-band aerial imagery. In this post we are going to engage in object based classification of an RGB image. Although this image is not of an airport, the classification we will engage in is very much something that those managing and maintaining an airport are interested in. Maintenance of airport runways is very much like that of maintaining a freeway or a highway, but with objects that weigh much more, and put more stress on certain areas. Therefore, finding and addressing issues with cracks is very important, along with understanding how much area is permeable vs. impermeable from a drainage standpoint. In todays post we are going to do a classification analysis on an RGB image where we first create a series of landcover categories. We will then simplify those categories into permeable and impermeable. We will then perform a field calculation to determine how many s...
