In this paper, we address the problem of replacing the existing images with the captured one. We provide a new solution by storing only the non-existing part of the image. Though satellite images have been classified in past by using various techniques, the researchers are always finding alternative strategies for satellite image classification so that they may be prepared to select the most appropriate technique for the feature extraction task in hand. In order to overcome this difficulty, we propose an efficient approach, which consists of an algorithm that can adopt robust feature kernel principle component analysis (KPCA) to reduce dimensionality of image. Concerning image clustering, we utilize Fuzzy N-Means algorithm.
