| Abstract | In urban areas, it has been long a challenge topic to automatically extract urban objects from images due to the high object density and scene complexity. Applying normal image processing methods could not achieve satisfied performance, especially for high-resolution satellite images. This paper presents a visual and manual approach for building extraction from single high-resolution IKONOS satellite images for dynamic City planning with taxation purposes. |
