Building Segmentation of Satellite Image based on Area and Perimeter using Region Growing

Abstract

A building can be known by look shape, color, and texture. Building can be detected by using many method. Region growing is one simple segmentation method because only use seed point. Before segmentation, the image must be preprocessing include sharpening, binerization by otsu method. Sharpening for clarify image and otsu method changed image valued 0 and 1. Next step is post-preprocessing include segmentation using region growing and opening closing operation. And the last process is detection building where building of detection will be signed. In this research, we present region growing for building segmentation by using both area and perimeter as a important variable in the region growing. Value of area more than 10 and perimeter is more than 50 are produced most of building.
