Linear mixture modelling applied to ikonos data for mangrove mapping
Mixed pixels problem in remotely sensed satellite data often results in poor classification accuracy. However, high spatial resolution sensors such as IKONOS and QuickBird, are expected to classify mangrove species more accurately than conventional coarse spatial resolution satellite images.

Mixed pixels problem in remotely sensed satellite data often results in poor classification accuracy. However, high spatial resolution sensors such as IKONOS and QuickBird, are expected to classify mangrove species more accurately than conventional coarse spatial resolution satellite images. Nevertheless, conventional classification technique such as maximum likelihood could not improve the classification accuracy when such high-resolution images are applied. In order to improve the classification accuracy Linear Mixture Model (LMM) was applied in this study to classify the mangrove forest at Sungai Belungkor, Johor, Malaysia. High spatial resolution satellite imagery (IKONOS) was used to map three different mangrove species in the area. The application of LMM to mangrove classification involved image preprocessing, endmember selection, inversion of LMM and finally the accuracy assessment. Accuracy assessment was carried out between the fraction of pixels estimated from LMM and the fraction measured in the field. The results of accuracy assessment gave a correlation coefficient value of ~0.8 for endmember bakau minyak and ~0.6 for bakau kurap and “others” type of mangrove species.
