A method for the classification of land cover in urban areas by the fusion of first and last pulse LIDAR data and multi-spectral images is presented. Apart from buildings, the classes "tree", "grass land", and "bare soil" are also distinguished by a classification method based on the theory of Dempster - Shafer for data fusion. Examples are given for a test site in Germany.
