Accuracy Assessment of Remotely Sensed Data (Part 6 of 7)

This video from AmericaView is part of a series that explores the process of assessing the accuracy of maps made from remotely sensed data. In the video, Russell G. Congalton from the University of New Hampshire explores methods and analysis for determining thematic accuracy. After the lesson, learners will be able to explain why the term ground truth is inappropriate, discuss the different types of analysis, review the descriptive statistics generated from the error matrix, present the Margfit and Kappa analysis techniques, and understand the fuzzy accuracy assessment and change detection accuracy assessment techniques. The video recording run 27:47 minutes in length.
