dc.description Geoinformatics 2008 and Joint Conference on GIS and Built Environment: Classification of Remote Sensing Images, edited by Lin Liu, Xia Li, Kai Liu, Xinchang Zhang, Proc. of SPIE Vol. 7147, 71470B en
dc.description.abstract Remotely sensed images are used for many purposes in today’s world. In this paper,the researchers explore the potential application of high resolution satellite images in extracting features and classifying urban settlements. The test area is Soweto, an urban area in the Greater Johannesburg Metropolitan area, in Gauteng, South Africa. The researchers propose a new settlement typology for efficient classification of formal and informal settlements via QuickBird satellite images en
