Abstract :
We propose to elaborate the land cover map of the Agadir region from the processing of a remote sensing image Landsat ETM+ covering the region. The methodology consists on an unsupervised classification of the image. We start by a preprocessing step in order to surround the useful information. We implement an iterative and auto organizer method known under the name of ISODATA, and apply it on the image. Finally we make a post classification, and a land validation
