Abstract


This paper reviews three methods of spectral-spatial classification for hyperspectral images of high spatial resolution: 1) pixelwise classification with post-filtering of resulting class map; 2) spectral-spatial classification based on geometric moments; 3) spectral-spatial classification based on segmentation. The paper provides the results of experimental comparison of these methods. The experiments are based on classification of images obtained by airborne hyperspectral sensor.
