3-2-2 Classification based on textural feature
Some classes of grassland are still seriously confused after
classification based of spectral feature, such as bushland and
vegetable wood-grassland and grassland or bushland. But their
texture feature are quite different. So we use texture measuring
to distinguish the various confused classes. For this reason every
4x4 or 8x8 window of image with confused classes is one by one
transformed into spatial frequency domain.
F(u,v)= FFT (f(x,y)) (5)
Then we calculate their measures of texture:
TX F = <5 si /F si (0,0) (6)
or the measures of texture direct in spatial domain :
TX3= 5^/Msi (7)
Table 2 shows some measures of texture in 2 typical areas ( Qiyu
mountain and Fubao mountain).

Table 2. Texture measures of 5 classes
We using feature of spectrum and texture in image 3 classes of
grassland at first level are extracted.
3-2-3 Classification based on non-remote sensed data
There is second level classification, each class is classified
into 3 groups by DHM and soil classes, and natural extension of
grassland should be considered at the same time.Finally, a grass
resources distribution map of Lichuan county at scale 1:100000 has
been output by computer. Table 3 shows the area of 9 groups in
grass resources map.
