چکیده

Accuracy is increasingly recognized as an important dimension in geospatial information and analyses. A strategy well suited for map users who usually have limited information about map lineages is proposed for location-specific characterization of accuracy in land cover change maps. Logistic regression is used to predict the probabilities of correct change categorization based on local patterns of map classes in the focal three by three pixel neighborhood centered at individual pixels being analyzed, while kriging is performed to make corrections to regression predictions based on regression residuals at sample locations. To promote uncertainty-informed accuracy characterization and to facilitate adaptive sampling of validation data, standard errors in both regression predictions and kriging interpolation are quantified to derive error margins in the aforementioned accuracy predictions. It was found that the integration of logistic regression and kriging leads to more accurate predictions of local accuracies through proper handling of spatially-correlated binary data representing pixel-specific (in)correct classifications than kriging or logistic regression alone. Secondly, it was confirmed that pixel-specific class labels, focal dominances and focal class occurrences are significant covariates for regression predictions at individual pixels. Lastly, error measures computed of accuracy predictions can be used for adaptively and progressively locating samples to enhance sampling efficiency and to improve predictions. The proposed methods may be applied for characterizing the local accuracy of categorical maps concerned in spatial applications, either input or output.
