摘要: Abstract One objective of the MultiResolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) consortium is to map general land-cover categories for conterminous United States using Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) data. Land-cover mapping and classification accuracy assessment are complete eastern States. The was based on photo-interpreted reference data obtained from a stratified probability sample pixels. Agreement defined as match between primary or alternate labels assigned each pixel mode (most common class) map's within 3×3-pixel neighborhood surrounding sampled point. At 30-m resolution, overall 59.7% at an Anderson Level II thematic detail, 80.5% I.
