L04: Land cover classifications

The next sessions focus on the supervised land-cover classification workflow. Based on digitizing training areas, we will compute one or more classifications and assess the accuracy using Cohen's Kappa.

W03-1: Read remote sensing data

W03-2: Explore the Landsat data

At the end of this session you should be able to

• create training sites as basis for a land cover classification
• compute land-cover classifications using machine learning algorithms
• know basic strategies of data splitting and cross validation
