You may be wondering what the remaining PCs (through PC7) look like, and if they show any useful information. The response, after examining, for example, PC6, is that the features we are familiar with do appear but probably offer little new in interpretation. Note that the waves in the image below now are black - interesting but perhaps meaningless; the golf course pattern is also black. Any three of these four PC images can be made into color composites with various assignments of blue, green, and red. In all, 24 different combinations are possible. Of those made experimentally for this review, this next image composed of PC 4 = blue, PC 1 = green, and PC 3 = red has proved the most interesting. In this rendition（表演）, the golf course has a singular color signature (orange-red) and a unique internal structure. Most other vegetation shows as red to purple-red tones, but the grasslands (v) has an unusual color, describable as greenish-orange. The brighter slopes of the hills and mountains appear as medium green, while some areas in shadow, are bluish（带蓝色的）. The urban areas also have a deep blue color. The beach bar now appears as turquoise（青绿色） and the adjacent breakers are olive-green. A very instructive example of a practical use of PCA is given in Section 5, page 3. A variant of PCA is known as Canonical Analysis (CA). Whereas PCA uses all pixels regardless of identity or class to derive the components, in CA one limits the pixels involved to those associated with pre-identified features/classes. This requires that those features can be recognized (by photointerpretation) in an image display (single band or color composite) in one to several areas within the scene. These pixels are blocked
