Classification Simulation of RazakSAT Satellite

This study presents simulation of land cover classification for RazakSAT satellite. The simulation makes use of the spectral capability of Landsat 5 TM satellite that has overlapping bands with RazakSAT. The classification is performed using Maximum Likelihood (ML), a supervised classification metho...
