“…Spectral and topographic variables, namely, NDVI [22], PCA [23], MSAVI [24], and DEM [25], were integrated with texture features such as homogeneity (HOM), second moment (M2), dissimilarity (DIS), entropy (ENT), and contrast (CON), for the object-based classification. Few studies have noted that the addition of DEM, NDVI, PCA, and MSAVI could help improve image classification results in terms of feature discrimination and accuracy of featured classes (e.g., [26,27]).…”
