Using Predefined Classification Filters

Predefined classification filters are special groupings of commonly used classification values such as "bare earth" and "canopy". The predefined filter buttons on the dialog can be used to include as well as exclude classes from a filter. The predefined filters can also be combined and customized to include only a partial set of classification values in the predefined filter.
