Abstract

Windmills have the characteristics of small area and small quantity in remote sensing images, so the traditional methods of object classification and recognition are not suitable for the recognition of windmills. In this paper, we analyzed the spectral information and shape characteristics of windmill, and proposed a technique of recognition windmills in remote sensing images based on SVM (support vector machines) and morphological attribute filters. The main idea of technique can be parted into two steps: the remote sensing image are divided into windmill and windmill-like areas, using morphological attribute filters to filter out the windmill-like areas. In addition, we have recognized the distributed windmills group in the images of four regions, and verify the accuracy of the recognition technique.
