Cluster Analysis of Satellite (LISS-III) Images of Earth surface

Abstract: In this paper, the objective is the digital image analysis of satellite images using clustering technique for identifying Vegetation, Water and Land area segments. The experimentation has been done using Linear Imaging Self Scanning (LISS-III) multispectral images of Dharwad area of Karnataka state in India acquired by IRS satellite. The KNN classifier is used. The experimental results are obtained from band-wise information and validated by using ground truth, which demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.

Keywords: KNN Classifier, LISS multispectral image, Satellite image, IRS Satellite.
