Common applications include the comparison of a reference map to one derived from a satellite image or a map of a real landscape to simulation model outputs. In either case the map that is 233 2004 by Taylor Francis Group LLC 234 REMOTE SENSING AND GIS ACCURACY ASSESSMENT considered to have the highest accuracy is used to evaluate the map of questionable accuracy. Throughout this chapter the term reference map refers to the map that is considered to have the highest accuracy and the term comparison map refers to the map that is compared to the reference map. Typically one wants to identify similarities and differences between the reference map and the comparison map. There are a variety of levels of sophistication by which to compare maps when they share a common categorical variable Congalton 1991 Congalton and Green 1999 . The simplest method is to compute the proportion of the landscape classified correctly. This method is an obvious first step however the proportion correct fails to inform the scientist of the most important ways in which the maps differ and hence it fails to .
