Comparative Analysis of MODIS Time-Series Classification Using Support Vector Machines and Methods Based upon Distance and Similarity Measures in the Brazilian Cerrado-Caatinga Boundary

We have mapped the primary native and exotic vegetation that occurs in the Cerrado-Caatinga transition zone in Central Brazil using MODIS-NDVI time series (product MOD09Q1) data over a two-year period (2011–2013). Our methodology consists of the following steps: (a) the development of a three-dimen...
