[Request for Changes - 90] Add vector classification application

Status

Author: Marina Bertolino
Submitted on dd.mm.yyyy
Proposed target release 6.0
Vector classifier

Summary

Add a new classification application allowing to classify a vector data.
This application can take any model supported by OTB.

Rationale

Currently, the otbOGRLayerClassifier application allows to classify a vector data with a SVM model.
Following the ask from different users, who wanted to classify vector data with other models that SVM model and make object classification.

Implementation details

It's a classification application which use vector data and expose all machin learning models.
Limitation: Shapefiles are supported. But the SQLite format is only supported in update mode.

Documentation

The VectorClassifier documentation in cookbook and a receipe for the vector classification have been created.

Additional notes

OGRLayerClassifier deprecated.
