Abstract
Land-Cover databases (LC-DB) are very useful for environmental purposes, but need to be regularly updated to provide robust and instructive spatial indicators. Moreover, very high resolution satellite images allow to cover large areas regularly. Thus, automatic methods have to been developed to tackle this issue. In this paper, a hierarchical inspection method is proposed to both update and extend LC-DB using satellite image. This framework is successfully applied on the French National LC-DB using a single VHR satellite image.
