 post-classification

Purpose

            This lab is to do necessary post-classification and make a GIS map.

Step 1. Preparation

    Based on the Lab 9, classification accuracy assessment, you will use the one that provides the best overall accuracy for this post-classification exercise.

Step 3. Post-classification and GIS map

    Do necessary post-classification to clean up your classified results as what the paper (Xie et al. 2007) did. Combine two or three classes into one class if you need. Then convert your classification image to GIS vector format, and export as .shp file.

    Open ArcGIS, add your image and your shape file(s) to overlay the vector to raster image. make a GIS map including necessary legends and other map parameters such as scale, N arrow, name, projection, datum, classification method used, accuracy assessment information, post-classification methods used.

    Write a report includes the procedures, analysis results, and the final GIS map, including the steps and parameters used in each post-classification method, showing the results of improvement or not of each method and discussing what you think which method might have made the best result.
