In the Bayesian classification of satellite images, a prior distribution is used that aims to model the belief of spatial homogeneity of the underlying region. We extend this prior distribution to model certain topographical features of the area such as the position of the roads, the slopes, and the aspects. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this prior distribution in a reconstruction algorithm by means of a simulation study in which the quality of the result is assessed by a comparison of estimated and known covertypes. We apply the algorithm to real data with success.
