Image Classification in Remote Sensing

One of the most important functions of remote sensing data is the production of Land Use and Land Cover maps and thus can be managed through a process called image classification. This paper looks into the following components related to the image classification process and procedures and image classification techniques and explains two common techniques K-means Classifier and Support Vector Machine (SVM).
