  1. 1. Carta ex Machina: Testing object-based machine learning and unsupervised classification in land use change detection mapping in the semi-arid governorate of Sidi Bouzid, Tunisia

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Kristian Emil Havnsgaard Paludan; [2021]
    Keywords : Change detection; Land use mapping; LANDSAT MSS; LANDSAT TM; GEOBIA; Random Forest classification; ISODATA cluster classification; Object-based classification; Semi-arid agriculture; Irrigation mapping; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Sidi Bouzid, Tunisia is an inland governorate in Tunisia that has undergone a rapid agricultural and urban development since the Tunisian independence in 1952 from being a rural and largely nomadic region into a hub of irrigated agriculture. In 2010 Mohamed Bouazizi sparked the Tunisian revolution by lighting himself on fire int he city of Sidi Bouzid, with some blaming the inequality and water scarcity created by this rapid expansion in the irrigation farming as an important cause (Bayat, 2017; Malka, 2018).

  3. 3. Investigating the potential of object-based image analysis to identify tree avenues in high resolution aerial imagery and lidar data : a literature review

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Greta Moreen Wistrand; [2016]
    Keywords : eCognition; remote sensing; geographic object-based image analysis; GE OBIA; lidar; tree avenues; landscape elements; monitoring; physical geography and ecosystem science; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of geographic object-based image analysis (GEOBIA) for the identification and monitoring of tree avenues with the help of aerial imagery and lidar data. For this, a literature review into three topics was conducted: First, scientific literature in form of journal articles, text books, and reports were used to highlight key features of GEOBIA.

  4. 4. Automating Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis and Assessing the Methods Transferability : A Case Study Using High Resolution Geografiska SverigedataTM Orthophotos

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Samhällsbyggnad, GIS

    Author : Isak Hast; Asmelash Mehari; [2016]
    Keywords : automatic training area selection; scale parameterisation; multiresolution segmentation; classification rule-sets; positional accuracy;

    Abstract : Geographic object-based image analysis (GEOBIA) is an innovative image classification technique that treats spatial features in an image as objects, rather than as pixels; thus resembling closer to that of human perception of the geographic space. However, the process of a GEOBIA application allows for multiple interpretations. READ MORE
