Image Processing in IDRISI Selva

IDRISI features the largest suite of tools for the processing of remotely sensed imagery that includes supervised and unsupervised classification techniques, based on scientifically proven algorithms and methods, for both multispectral and hyperspectral imagery. Included are industry standard processing and classification tools, and also extensive machine learning classifiers including neural network classifiers.

What makes the software critical for today’s analysts is that image processing data can be completely integrated with IDRISI's equally extensive set of raster GIS tools, saving effort, costs and resources. For over 25 years, Clark Labs has been involved in the development of geospatial technologies, supplying the community with the most comprehensive GIS and image processing system on the market.

Segment-Based Classification

 
Segmentation Analysis with IDRISI Taiga

The SEGMENTATION module creates an image of segments that have spectral similarity across many input bands. The image on the left uses a larger similarity threshold than the one on the right, resulting in more generalized, less homogeneous segments. Using this threshold, the image allows for segments that wholly contain building objects.
