Image interpretation and GIS analysis as an approach for moor monitoring

摘要

Moor monitoring includes supervision of administrative as well as ecological parameters within moor areas to help solving conflicts between contradictory claims and demands. Especially the observation of the development in landuse over time plays an essential role in protecting this sensitive environment. To acquire basic landuse data, aerial images offer most actual information. In this paper we introduce three independent research groups and their approaches that fit together well to automate necessary steps from image segmentation to GIS analysis.
