Abstract
    The coastal defence and nature conservation authorities from the Ministry of the Flemish Community need detailed vegetation maps of the Belgian coast for policy planning and evaluation. From an Integrated Coastal Zone Management point of view, the development of efficient tools serving both authorities is desirable. Therefore new methods for objective, detailed and cost-efficient vegetation mapping are under investigation. This paper focuses on the application of airborne hyperspectral imagery. Two classification methods are used. The standard Spectral Angle Mapper, performed after a Minimum Noise Fraction transform, gives an overall accuracy of 59% with 15 vegetation classes. When using the Optimized Spectral Angle Mapper, the overall accuracy can be increased to 67% using the same 15 classes.
