Figure 3

The distribution of the data for each of the paired three classes of trees and other vegetation (a) Jacaranda versus Plane, (b) Jacaranda versus other vegetation type and (c) plane versus other vegetation type, in the four bands (Blue, green, red and NIR) and NDVI index. Histograms with the least spectral overlap between each of the paired classes show the best separability between them. The different spectral bands and vegetative indices were generated using the ArcGIS desktop software version 10.3 from SPOT 6 pan-sharpened images obtained from the South African National Space Agency (SANSA).
