Processing Checklist

The details of the processing stream you use are left for you to decide. However, it is important that those details are recorded precisely. To make this easier, please use the following checklist to indicate which steps you applied.

• Do not orthorectify the image.

• Atmospheric correction (specify method)

• Principal Component Transformation

• Dark object subtraction

• Classification:

  • Unsupervised:

    • ISOData

    • K-means

    • Other

  • Supervised:

    • Maximum Likelihood

    • Parallelepiped

    • Minimum distance

    • Spectral angle mapper

    • Other

  • Threshold

    • Band ratio (ASTER 3 / 4): Value of threshold _____

    • NDSI Value of threshold _____

    • Other

  • Manual Please describe how manual processing was done, and give some indication of how much (%) of the outlines were affected. If there is a mixture of manual and automatic results, it would be great if you could assign an attribute flagging the manual results.

• Raster-to-vector conversion: If you used a raster classification scheme, how were the boundaries converted to vector format?
