Abstract :
The classification performance of a neural network for combined six-band Landsat-TM and one-band ERS-1/SAR PRI imagery from the same scene is carried out. Different combinations of the data-either raw, segmented or filtered-using the available ground truth polygons, training and test sets are created. The training sets are used for learning while the test sets are used for verification of the neural network. The different combinations are evaluated
