In this chapter, the concept of stochastic optimal control is well explored using hidden Markov model (HMM) in classifying land covers of remotely sensed images. The features of land covers can be colour, shape, and texture. Texture is a useful feature in land cover classification. A texture-based land cover classification algorithm using HMM has been proposed. The local derivative pattern (LDP) texture descriptor for gray level images has been extended as multivariate local derivative pattern (MLDP) for remotely sensed images in this chapter. Experiments were conducted on IRS P6 LISS-IV data and the results were evaluated based on the classification accuracy and compared against the three existing methods such as wavelet, MLDP and colour gray level co-occurrence matrix (CGLCM). The results indicate that the proposed algorithm achieves a classification accuracy of 88.75%.
