Analysis of Landsat for monitoring vegetables in New York mucklandsThis pilot study assessed the feasibility of relying on Landsat multispectral scanner data for inventorying vegetables grown in mucklands,in variably shaped, variably sized fields. Classification of muckland vegetables using a Euclidean distance classifier and a parallelepiped classifier was performed with reasonable accuracy (generally over 60 percent) based on only one date of Landsat data. Prior canonical and principal component analyses did not improve the classification accuracy but did reduce the dimensionality of the data.
