# otbcli\_VectorClassifier(1)

OTB VectorClassifier application

## NAME

otbcli\_VectorClassifier - OTB VectorClassifier application

## DESCRIPTION

This is the VectorClassifier application, version 6.0.0 Performs a classification of the input vector data according to a model file.Features of the vector data output will contain the class labels decided by the classifier (maximal class label = 65535).
