Figure 5. Estimation of scale parameters for multiresolution segmentation of 5 cm image using ESP. The abrupt increases of rate of change (dark grey color curve) indicate the optimal scales for segmentation.

Figure 6. Classification tree built for imagery acquired on 11 June 2015 with spatial resolution of 10 cm. Classes in the grey colored boxes represent classified species. Bold letters show selected features as classifiers; specific threshold values for different features were not shown for the sake of comprehension.
