Fig. 10: Two classification examples for buildings of the item class “Buildings planned or under construction” (as of June 2012); left and middle: certain classified segments, and, right, as compiled items; in the top row is an example of the construction project in progress; below it is a building already completed at the time of the aerial photography flight in September 2010

Fig. 11: Classification steps for the determination of the item classes “Garden cottages” outside the ALK system: a) The classification of the vegetation mask attained prior to this step, with real colour RGB aerial photography data superimposed; b) Situation-precise section of the surface model NDSM – no heights of garden cottages can be directly derived; c) Initial classification attempt yields errors in the area of streets; d) Ensuing classification step, with correction for the street areas

Tables
Tab. 1: Number of greened roofs/ portions of roofs per borough, and their respective uses (area ascertained shown in red, as of: July 2013); the ascertainment of green roofs in the rest of the city did not provide sufficient data quality to permit an assessment.
