It is increasingly recognized that classification accuracy should be characterized locally at the level of individual pixels to depict its spatial variability to better inform users and producers of land-cover information than by conventional error-matrix-based methods. Local or per-pixel accuracy is usually estimated through empirical modelling, such as logistic regression, which often proceeds in a class-aggregated or a class-stratified way, with the latter being generally more accurate due to its accommodation for between-class inhomogeneity in accuracy-context relations. As an extension to class-stratified modelling, class-heterogeneity-stratified modelling, in which logistic models are built separately for contextually heterogeneous vs. homogeneous sub-strata in individual strata of map classes, is proposed in this paper for proper handling of within-class inhomogeneity in accuracy-context relations to increase accuracy of estimation. Unlike in existing literature where sampling is usually approached separately, the double-stratification method is also adopted in sampling design so that more sample data are likely allocated to heterogeneous sub-strata (which are more prone to misclassifications than homogeneous ones). This class-heterogeneity-stratified method furnished for sampling and modelling jointly thus constitutes an integrative framework for accuracy estimation and information refinement. As the first step in building up such a framework, this paper investigates the proposed double-stratification method’s performance and sensitivity to sample size regarding local accuracy estimation in comparison with those of existing methods through a case study concerning Globeland3
