Data Fusion of Multi-source Remote Sensing Based on Level Set Method and Application to Urban Road Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using data fusion of multi-spectral and microwave radar images, a semiautomatic method is developed based on the level set method for application to urban road extraction. The fast marching method of level set makes data fusion. Radar remote sensing image can make up road breaks due to shadowing of high building or tree canopy in multi-spectral image, while multi-spectral image can be of helpful to decrease speckles and identify linear road from flat water surface. As example, the data fusion and road extraction from the ERS-2 SAR image and Landsat ETM+, as well as RASARSAT-1 SAR image and Landsat ETM+, in Shanghai area are applied. * Corresponding author.

متن کاملObject Level Strategy for Spectral Quality Assessment of High Resolution Pan-sharpen Images
Panchromatic and multi-spectral images produced by the remote sensing satellites are fused together to provide a multi-spectral image with a high spatial resolution at the same time. The spectral quality of the fused images is very important because the quality of a large number of remote sensing products depends on it. Due to the importance of the spectral quality of the fused images, its eval...
