Why? Autonomous Navigation Geographical Exploration Coastal Erosion Monitoring and Modelling Coastal Resource Inventory and Management. Boundary Detection Problem Edge Detection Image Segmentation Introduction
Methodology Overview • Pre-segmentation • Segmentation • Post-segmentation
Pre-segmentation Processing Algorithms • Noise Removal • Edge Enhancement
Image Segmentation • Local Thresholds • Bimodal Gaussian Curve
Image Segmentation • PDF • Lenvenberg-Margardt method • Canny Edge Detector
Image Segmentation • Where to start? • Solve the quadratic • Image segmentation
Post Segmentation Processing • Region Grouping and Labelling • Delineating • Vectorization
Application Example • Antarctic Imaging Campaign in 1997 • SAR Images
Discussion and Conclusions • Image Quality • Improvements • Liu & Jezek 2004
