Gi. Belchanskii et al., COMPARATIVE VALIDITY ESTIMATION OF ERS-1, ALMAZ, AND LANDSAT-TM SATELLITE DATA FOR DOCUMENTATION OF TUNDRA ECOSYSTEMS, Earth observation and remote sensing, 12(3), 1995, pp. 366-377
Comparative validity of the ERS-1, ''Almaz'', and ''Landsat-TM'' satel
lite data for documentation of tundra ecosystems is estimated. Algorit
hms and software are developed for comprehensive data processing with
the minimumloss function in false classification as the classification
optimality criterion. A stepwise discriminant analysis of data for ch
oosing an optimal ensemble of the main and synthesized channels is per
formed. The results of classification and comparative analysis are pre
sented.
