Summary: | As early as 1970s, the United States has begun the research of remote sensing image processing technology. In recent ten years, the research of road remote sensing extraction in China has also advanced by leaps and bounds. High resolution remote sensing images have been widely used in many fields, such as urban development planning, environmental monitoring and evaluation, and public announcement information services. The main application goal of remote sensing image is to extract the information of the object of interest, then identify it and complete the image understanding. Road is the most important and basic transportation mode of human beings, which provides a lot of support for the development of human civilization. road extraction is important for traffic management, including urban planning, road monitoring, GPS navigation, map updating, image registration, etc. extracting roads from high-resolution remote sensing satellite images is not only a challenging research direction, but also of great practical value.
