pksvmogr - classify vector dataset using Support Vector Machine

pksvmogr implements a support vector machine (SVM) to solve a supervised classification problem.  The im‐
       plementation  is  based on the open source C++ library libSVM (http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm).
       Both raster and vector files are supported as input.  The output will contain the classification  result,
       either  in  raster or vector format, corresponding to the format of the input.  A training sample must be
       provided as an OGR vector dataset that contains the class labels  and  the  features  for  each  training
       point.   The point locations are not considered in the training step.  You can use the same training sam‐
       ple for classifying different images, provided the number of bands of the images are identical.  Use  the
       utility  pkextract  to  create  a suitable training sample, based on a sample of points or polygons.  For
       raster output maps you can attach a color table using the option -ct.
