Abstract

          Endangered mangroves under the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems are one of the most severe issues of the world's coastal ecosystems. This concern required the necessary monitoring for mangrove ecosystems and their diversity. Nowadays, hyperspectral satellite imagery is associated with hundreds of wavelengths to categorize mangrove species. Therefore, this is an excellent opportunity for a new earth observation hyperspectral satellite, PRISMA, delivered by the Italian Space Agency. Currently, PRISMA information has not been previously used for mangrove species classification. This experiment launched the first-time examination of applying PRISMA hyperspectral on mangroves species categorization in Talumpuk cape, Pak Phanang District, Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. In the classification, two spectral band selectors, genetic algorithm (GA) and sequential maximum angle convex cone (SMACC), were associated with the spectral angle mapper (SAM) classifier to determine the most satisfactory hyperspectral band set. Classifications from those two selectors and entire bands were compared using overall accuracy and dependent sample t-test. The result revealed that the GA band selection could improve the classification accuracy from 81% to 82% compared to the entire band combination. This outcome undoubtedly proves the performance of PRISMA imagery's application on mangrove species classification. Keywords :  PRISMA hyperspectral data ; remote sensing ; classification ; mangrove ; species composition
