Road network extraction in high resolution SAR images

The application of high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images from aerial and satellite sensors challenges the researchers for new and effective interpretation tools. Although most of the main axes in the road network may be detected by a skilled human observer looking for dark or bright linear structures, automatic detection remains a difficult task. In this paper, we proposed a new simple approach to extract main road network in high-resolution SAR images automatically. The approach is based on three steps. The first step is pre-filtering the initial SAR images by using a two-way thresholding process in order to discard uninteresting parts of image. In the second step, the results of the first step are input and use the Hough transform to identify the roads respectively. The last step is based on a feature fusion technique. The road networks detected are combined with the fusion operators. We show the improved results from some examples. It is proved that this approach is effective for the straight highways in high-resolution images
