Chapter 2 37<br />

The second analysed image has been acquired above Tor Vergata area -Rome,<br />

Italy- (Fig 2.2, Table 2.1). This image covers the site where Tor Vergata campus is<br />

located, which means that the ground truth can be easily observed considering that<br />

this work has been developed physically in this area. Moreover, several<br />

publications on the application of Neural Networks for classification have been<br />

produced on this site, allowing to compare the accuracy of the innovative proposed<br />

methodology with the existing one [202], [203], [204], [205].<br />
