Tree Crown Detection and Extraction from High Resolution Satellite Images in an Urban Area

The paper presents an approach the tree crowns detection and extraction from satellite images. The approaches for the High resolution satellite images in urban area to separate the Non-vegetation and Vegetation area in the images. The NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) scheme is applied for vegetation area detection from image. The Texture Analysis algorithms are used for sorting out the grasslands and trees area. The effective results maximum numbers of tree crowns are detected from the Segmentation process.
