Multisource Remote Sensing based Impervious Surface Mapping
Impervious surface (IS) not only serves as a key indicator of urbanization, but also affects the micro-ecosystem. Therefore, it is essential to monitor IS distribution timely and accurately. Remote sensing is an effective approach as it can provide straightforward and consistent information over …

Land Cover and Impervious Surface Mapping Using Multispectral Airborne Laser Scanner Data
Impervious surfaces are land covers that do not allow water penetration. Water runoff from impervious surfaces can cause major flooding in extreme climates; therefore, mapping such surface covers in urban areas is of great importance for water resources, climatology, and urban studies. Automated …
