Selection of Informative Features to Highlight Areas of Waste Disposal by High Spatial Resolution Satellite Imagery

Resumo

This paper deals with the problem of the integrated interpretation of solid municipal-waste landfill facilities according to satellite imagery with a high spatial resolution. The main interpretation features of disposal sites in optical satellite images with a high spatial resolution are analyzed. Results of the texture and fractal analysis of spacecraft images of disposals are presented. Statistical properties and color features of image fragments in disposal sites are revealed. A mathematical model of textures of littering components is presented and fractal dimensions of high-resolution images in disposal areas are calculated.
