Abstract:
      Based on single-temporal MODIS data of Gansu Province mainly using its visible spectra three classifiers-the maximum likelihood BP neural network and decision tree based on data mining software of See 5.0 are used for land cover classification research.The validated result shows that the decision tree algorithm has the best performance of extraction with an overall accuracy of 82.13% followed by the BP network algorithm and the maximum likelihood classifier has the worst performance.Data mining software of See 5.0 with boosting technique can build decision tree quickly and improve the precision of miscible classes.
