An Impervious Surface Spectral Index on Multispectral Imagery Using Visible and Near-Infrared Bands
The accurate mapping of urban impervious surfaces from remote sensing images is crucial for understanding urban land-cover change and addressing impervious-surface-change-related environment issues. To date, the authors of most studies have built indices

Impervious surface mapping with Quickbird imagery [PDF]
This research selects two study areas with different urban developments, sizes, and spatial patterns to explore the suitable methods for mapping impervious surface distribution using Quickbird imagery. The selected methods include per-pixel based supervised classification, segmentation-based classification, and a hybrid method.

URBAN IMPERVIOUS SURFACE EXTRACTION BASED ON REMOTE SENSING IMAGES [PDF]
Urban planning and constructions affect spatial patterns of urban impervious surfaces, which in turn modify the urban environment and affect human-environment interactions. Impervious surfaces can redistribute precipitation patterns, and the perviousness–
