Abstract

The work presented in this article consists in evaluating the contribution of the use of a texture-color combination in forest mapping. We transform a Spot image into different color spaces, then we extract nine parameters using Laws filter. The resulting set of parameters is reduced using MIFS algorithm based on mutual information. The results are promising and give satisfying classification results.
