The accuracy of soil classification on a soil map can be assessed using
A) RMSE
B) cross-tabulation
C) standard deviation
D) mean

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cross-tabulation is a method used to compare the accuracy of a map with field observations. It involves comparing the observations from the field with the classified areas on the map. This method can provide a measure of agreement between the map and the field observations in terms of the number of correctly classified areas and the number of areas that were misclassified. RMSE, standard deviation, and mean are statistical measures that can assess the accuracy of continuous data, but they are not appropriate for soil classification.
