Mod 4 - Supervised Classification and Recode

Germantown Land Use Map
The purpose of this map is to view and assess the city of Germantown, Maryland's land use pattern and growth trends in order to locate and build a new town center with respect to Maryland's Smart, Green and Growing Initiative. Satellite imagery has been classified and coded based on areas ground truthed in each category. Classification signatures were evaluated with histogram values and mean plot charts. Spectrally confused classes were edited until the values were accebtable then similar classes were grouped and recoded as reflected in the legend.

Evaluating and revising the signatures waas the hard part of this challenge for me. I wasn't sure if my criteria for evaluating the histograms and mean plots was valid.
