Abstract

Edge detection algorithms applied to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images have many applications. Detecting edges is an important task in processing images in order to see objects from SAR data. In this work, the received data is rst ltered and then backprojected. The edges are detected in both the x and y directions and results shown. SAR segmented images generated using this technique, are provided from a publicly available SAR dataset. The authors of this technique had applied it to synthetic data; in this work the process is applied on real SAR data with signicant results.
