A methodofclassification ofdigitized multispectral image dataisdescribed. Itisdesigned toexploit aparticular typeofdepen- dencebetween adjacent states ofnature thatischaracteristic ofthe data.Theadvantages ofthis, asopposed totheconventional "per point" approach, aregreater accuracy andefficiency, andtheresults areinamoredesirable formformostpurposes.
