DETECTION OF BARCHAN DUNES IN HIGH RESOLUTION SATELLITE IMAGES

Multi Resolution Fuzzy Segmentation of Satellite Images

Damage detection in earthquake disasters using high-resolution satellite images

This paper highlights the usefulness and accuracy of high-resolution satellite images in damage detection after the occurrence of natural disasters. A strong earthquake struck the city of Bam in the southeast Iran on 26 December, 2003 and it brought massive destruction to the city and its surrounding rural areas. IKONOS and QuickBird (QB), high-resolution optical satellites, captured clear imag...

Automatic Bridge Detection in High-Resolution Satellite Images

Classification-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...

Shadow detection in colour high-resolution satellite images

Image shadow segmentation has become a major issue in satellite remote sensing because of the recent commercial availability of high-resolution images. Detecting shadows is important for successfully carrying out applications such as change detection, land monitoring, object recognition, scene reconstruction, colour correction, etc. This paper presents a simple and effective procedure to segmen...
