2. Feature space and image classification Imagine you have available image data from a multi-spectral scanner that has two narrow spectral bands. One is centered on 0.65 and the other on 1.0 wavelength. Suppose the corresponding region on the earth’s surface consists of water, vegetation and soil.
Construct a graph with two axes, one representing the brightness of a pixel in the 0.65 band and the other representing the brightness of the pixel in the 1.0 band. In this show where you would expect to find vegetation pixels, soil pixels and water pixels.

Problem Analysis
Set up a camera and take some sample images to extract features
• Length• Lightness• Width• Number and shape of fins• Position of the mouth, etc…

Classification
Select the length of the fish as a possible feature for discrimination

The length is a poor feature alone!
Select the lightness as a possible feature.

2. The pattern of land use/cover change (e.g., large/small patch, along road/stream)
3. What are the drivers of land use/cover change?
4. What are the environmental, social, economic, and human health consequences of current and potential land-use and land-cover change

ImportantWhy?
Narrowing down informationBetter understanding of map
What might you want to know?Which features occur most oftenHow often they occurWhere are they located?

GIS Data QueryWhat is it?
Using tools to find records meeting specific criteriaHow?
Select criteriaUse operators to
define expression• Simple • Complex
And: Intersection of setsEx.: ([area] > 1500) and ( [b_room] > 3)
Or: Union of setsEx: ([age] < 18 or [age] > 65)
Not: Subtracts one set from another setEx.: ([sub_region] = "N Eng") and ( not ( [state_name] = "Maine"))
