The thematic map was generated based on SPOT image with a spatial resolution of 5 m. Object-based analysis was used for its advantages over per-pixel based methods. On the other hand, random forest algorithm was selected because it was suggested in very recent literature and it has advantages ofgood generalization.A thematic map with sixclasses was generated with an overall accuracy and kappa index of 92% and 0.90, respectively using the proposed method. Other details are included in the paper.
