Abstract :
Useful methods of urban vegetation coverage extraction on Kunming urban areas are proposed in the paper using advanced DMC imagery. The spectral response of typical ground objects has been studied and the methods of vegetation coverage extraction are developed to evaluate the accurate and reliable vegetation cover maps. The success of the project shows the methods presented in the paper are valid and useful. These approaches can be expanding to further extensive applications in remote sensing imagery.
