Road Detection in Panchromatic SPOT Satellite Images
نویسنده
چکیده
The goal of this study is to detect the main road network in high resolution, panchromatic SPOT satellite images. The applications of automatic road detection have attracted considerable interest in this problem [1–4], but no present system is completely satisfactory from the point of view of detection time, image size and required human intervention. We describe an automatic procedure for road detection which has the following advantages over the previous approaches: (i) it does not require manual initialization, (ii) it is able to detect some of the secondary roads in addition to the main highways, and (iii) the detection time is small ( 3 min) even on large images.

Kohonen Self Organizing for Automatic Identification of Cartographic Objects
Automatic identification and localization of cartographic objects in aerial and satellite images have gained increasing attention in recent years in digital photogrammetry and remote sensing. Although the automatic extraction of man made objects in essence is still an unresolved issue, the man made objects can be extracted from aerial photos and satellite images. Recently, the high-resolution s...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Model for Road Identification on Satellite Images
Automatic extraction of objects from aerial or satellite images have made significant progress in recent years. This paper presents an experimental model based on fuzzy logic system for identification of roads in SPOT sensor panchromatic images in Iran. Also the proposed model can be used for images such IKONOS. The method consists of three steps: feature extraction, fuzzy modeling, and mathema...
متن کاملClassification-based vehicle detection in high- resolution satellite images
In this study we have looked into the problem of vehicle detection in highresolution satellite images. Based on the input from the local road authorities, we have focused not only on highways, but also on inner city roads, where more clutter is expected. The study site is the city of Oslo, Norway. To do vehicle detection in these areas, we propose an automatic approach consisting of a segmentat...
متن کاملUsing SPOT–5 HRG Data in Panchromatic Mode for Operational Detection of Small Ships in Tropical Area
Nowadays, there is a growing interest in applications of space remote sensing systems for maritime surveillance which includes among others traffic surveillance, maritime security, illegal fisheries survey, oil discharge and sea pollution monitoring. Within the framework of several French and European projects, an algorithm for automatic ship detection from SPOT-5 HRG data was developed to comp...
