Identifying Vegetation in Arid Regions Using Object-Based Image Analysis with RGB-Only Aerial Imagery

Vegetation state is usually assessed by calculating vegetation indices (VIs) derived from remote sensing systems where the near infrared (NIR) band is used to enhance the vegetation signal. However VIs are pixel-based and require both visible and NIR bands. Yet, most archived photographs were obtain...
