Image Enhancement and Feature Extraction Based on Low-Resolution Satellite Data

Image Enhancement and Feature Extraction Based on Low-Resolution Satellite Data Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the sensitivity of contrast-based textural measurements and morphological characteristics that derive from high-resolution satellite imagery (three-band SPOT-5) when diverse image enhancements techniques are piloted. The general framework of the application is the built-up/nonbuilt-up detection. In the […]
