Is it plausible to use NDVI along with other regular bands for image classification related data processing? Recently, I came across a comment that RED and NIR band might interfere with NDVI or vice versa during the processing. I am working on a project where I want to classify healthy and stressed crop patches in fields using satellite imagery, and I am using all four bands (RGB and NIR) along with NDVI to train the model and classify the satellite images. For the classification, I am using Random Forest algorithm.
From my experience the answer is Yes. NDVI band can be combined with RGB and NIR bands for yielding good classification results. But, make sure that you are using the NDVI derived from your input image. Also better to include in your feature space the texture features such as Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM)
yes of course you can especially if you need to isolate / identify health vegetated areas . it is obvious that you should derive the NDVI from the same original data!!
Hi
Yes you can but you must make field checking for each class because there are big overlape between the classes ..best regards
Estimado,
Puede combinar las diferentes bandas y revisar la fenología de los cultivos o coberturas para hacer una mayor análisis de los resultados. Saludo
