Automated built-up infrastructure classification is a global need for planning. However, individual indices have weaknesses, including spectral confusion with bare ground, and computational requirements for deep learning are intensive. We present a computationally lightweight method to classify built-up infrastructure. We use an ensemble of spectral indices and a novel red-band texture layer with global thresholds determined from 12 diverse sites (two seasonally varied images per site). Multiple spectral indexes were evaluated using Sentinel-2 imagery. Our texture metric uses the red band to separate built-up infrastructure from spectrally similar bare ground. Our evaluation produced global thresholds by evaluating ground truth points against a range of site-specific optimal index thresholds across the 24 images. These were used to classify an ensemble, and then spectral indexes, texture, and stratified random sampling guided training data selection. The training data fit a random forest classifier to create final binary maps. Validation found an average overall accuracy of 79.95% (±4%) and an F1 score of 0.5304 (±0.07). The inclusion of the texture metric improved overall accuracy by 14–21%. A comparison to site-specific thresholds and a deep learning-derived layer is provided. This automated built-up infrastructure mapping framework requires only public imagery to support time-sensitive land management workflows. |
