Spatial Topological Relationship for Remote Sensing Image Analysis

Abstract:

For remote sensing imagery, spatial relationships are extracted by segmentation and classification. Unlike traditional vector relationships, spatial relationship reasoning is equivalent to constraint satisfaction problems in the image process. Based on 9-intersect model, the paper discuss spatial topological relationship between image objects to provide a theoretical and technical support for low levels of image segmentation, high-level analysis.
