Abstract

This paper presents a method based on fuzzy fusion to improve feature extraction in satellite SAR images. Two road detectors are applied on SAR images and their output is merged interactively. Experimental results are presented with ERS1/2 SAR images in different configurations including ascending/descending orbits and georeferenced images.
