Abstract

In order to improve the classification accuracy of high resolution change detection, the key technologies such as segmentation scale determination, features selection and classifier use are studied, and a change detection method using hierarchical decision tree is proposed. Firstly, fractal net evolution approach was used to obtain image objects, and the optimal scales of vegetation, water, and man-made objects were determined by evaluation index based on classification accuracy. Second, the feature spaces of man-made, water and vegetation objects are constructed. Then, the hierarchical decision tree classification method with the optimal segmentation scales is applied to multi-temporal high resolution remote sensing images. Finally, change detection was implemented by comparing the multi-temporal classification results. The multi-temporal high resolution remote sensing images in Wuhan Lujiazhuang were chosen as the experimental data. The experiments show that the method is effective.
