Figure 8. (a) Comparison of debris zone results obtained from spectral–textural classification approach for IKONOS and NOAA imagery (interior boundary = identified as debris from both data types; grey = identified as debris in IKONOS imagery but non-debris in NOAA imagery; black = identified as debris in NOAA imagery but non-debris in IKONOS imagery). (b) Extracted IKONOS spectral–textural classification debris line compared with manually interpreted results from Friedland et al. (Citation2011). Image source: DigitalGlobe 2-Sep-05.
