Discriminating lithology in arctic environments from Earth orbit, an evaluation of satellite imagery and classification algorithms

Empirical investigations of classification algorithms for lithological discrimination were performed for field areas on Melville Island, Nunavut, and in the Cape Smith Belt of northern Quebec. These investigations suggest that a neural network classifier (a majority-vote consensus algorithm that co...
