SEMI-AUTOMATED DELINEATION OF INFORMAL SETTLEMENT STRUCTURES FROM DRONE RGB IMAGERY USING OBJECT-BASED IMAGE ANALYSIS

With the problem of informal settlements in the Philippines, mapping such areas is the first step towards improvement. Object-based image analysis (OBIA) has been a powerful tool for mapping and feature extraction, especially for high-resolution datasets. In this study, an informal settlement area i...
