| Extraction of geospatial data from the photogrammetric sensing images becomes more and more important with the advances in the technology. Today Geographic Information Systems are used in a large variety of applications in engineering, city planning and social sciences. Geospatial data like roads, buildings and rivers are the most critical feeds of a GIS database. However, extracting buildings is one of the most complex and challenging tasks as there exist a lot of inhomogeneity due to varying hierarchy. The variety of the type of buildings and also the shapes of rooftops are very inconstant. Also in some areas, the buildings are placed irregularly or too close to each other. For these reasons, even by using high resolution IKONOS and QuickBird satellite imagery the quality percentage of building extraction is very less. This paper proposes a solution to the problem of automatic and unsupervised extraction of building features irrespective of rooftop structures in multispectral satellite images. The algorithm instead of detecting the region of interest, eliminates areas other than the region of interest which extract the rooftops completely irrespective of their shapes. Extensive tests indicate that the methodology performs well to extract buildings in complex environments. |
