(or is proposed as) an international standard for classification through ISO. I
would certainly recommend using LCCS to define your classes up front. Then you
can use any appropriate sensor data (such as SPOT 5) and software (such as
OSSIM or ILWIS) to implement that classification. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
