  • Abstract
    Accurate shadow detection is very important for many remote sensing applications. In this paper, we applied an algorithm which takes advantages of combined information from RGB and near infrared images (NIR) to ADS40 data in Swiss national inventory ( NFI). Preliminary experimental results shows that shadows can be successfully detected by this simple methods.
