Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this effort is to develop and demonstrate prototype processing capabilities for a knowledge based system to automatically extract and analyze linear features from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery. This effort constitutes Phase II funding through the Defense Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Program. Previous work examined the feasibility of and technology issues involved in the development of an automated linear feature extraction system. The current effort continues this examination and is developing the technologies involved in automating this image understanding task. Keywords: Feature extraction, Edge detection, Terrain analysis, Image understanding.
