Popis: | The shape and area of the crown of each tree are among the most influential parameters for identifying and controlling the processes of photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration and its management. In such a way that various physiographic functions, such as carbon dioxide absorption, light energy absorption, oxygen release and transpiration, which are vital for the growth and development of the tree, are done in the crown. In this research, the RGB image of the UAV with a spatial resolution of 2 cm was resampled to three pixel sizes of 10, 30 and 50 cm. Then, each image was classified separately by SVM, ANN and MLC algorithms, which are all part of Ensemble. In the next step, each of the obtained crowns was compared with the digitization of the same crown, and based on the area of the crown obtained from each classification and normalization method, the weight was obtained specifically for the same crown. Finally, by using the weighted majority voting method, classifications were fusioned at the decision level. The results showed that the ANN method gives better results in all pixel sizes compared to MLC and SVM. Also, the combination of different classification methods with the weighted majority voting method based on the weight assigned to the same crown based on each classification method has significantly increased the classification accuracy of the tree crown in all the sizes of the analyzed pixels. |
