Fusing Ultra-Hyperspectral and High Spatial Resolution Information for Land Cover Classification Based on AISAIBIS Sensor and Phase Camera

Hyperspectral imaging technology are widely used in vegetation, agriculture, and other fields, especially in land cover classification of complex scenes. Higher spectral resolution has become the focus of the development of hyperspectral imaging technology for classification. The advent of airborne AISAIBIS sensor reaches 0.11 nm ultrahyperspectral resolution. The ultrahyperspectral imagery shows great advantages in classification with its increasing spectral resolution. But its spatial resolution is limited because of the imaging mechanism, which brings great difficulties to the accurate extract of fine and regular objects. Therefore, we proposed an optimal fusion and classification strategy based on the complementary advantage information of ultrahyperspectral and high spatial resolution image. The fusion feasibility and effectiveness were verified by various fusion methods. And a quality evaluation system was developed to assess the quality of fusion results. Besides, a multiresolution segmentation optimization and classification evaluation scheme was proposed to comparatively analyze the effect of optimal fusion result on improving classification accuracy. Results show that the classification accuracy of the optimal fused image reaches 88.10%, and 7.11%-19.03% higher than that of original images. It fully validates the effectiveness of the strategy proposed in this article.
