Abstract

The classification of urban land cover/land use is a difficult task due to the complexity in the structure of the urban surface. This paper presents the method of combining of Sentinel 2 MSI and Landsat 8 multi-resolution satellite image data for urban bare land classification based on NDBaI index. Two images of Sentinel 2 and Landsat 8 acquired closely together, were used to calculate the NDBaI index, in which sortware infrared band (band 11) of Sentinel 2 MSI image and thermal infrared band (band 10) of Landsat 8 image were used to improve the spatial resolution of NDBaI index. The results obtained from two experimental areas showed that, the total accuracy of classifying bare land from the NDBaI index which calculated by the proposed method increased by about 6% compared to the method using the NDBaI index, which is calculated using only Landsat 8 data. The results obtained in this study contribute to improving the efficiency of using free remote sensing data in urban land cover/land use classification.

Keywords: bare land, classification, urban indices, NDBaI, Sentinel 2 MSI, Landsat 8.
