Automatic detection of land meliorations from orthophotos
Automatic detection of land meliorations from orthophotos using image processing, analysis and pattern recognition algorithms. Apart from standard operations modifying contrast of the images and segmentation, we use Hough transform for recognition of linear (melioration pipes) and circular (shaft) objects.
Orthophoto of melioration pipeline: (a) original image, (b) linear objects detected using Hough transform.
