Abstract
ABSTRACT Morphological processing has found several applications in image analysis and pattern recognition. Some of these techniques, known as morphological reconstruction algorithms, have been employed for land cover classification in remote sensing data. In this paper, we analyse the mathematical foundations, applications, and limitations of reconstruction by dilation and by erosion oriented to urban extraction, using Sentinel-2 satellite data. Different techniques oriented to the proper determination of the marker and mask images, the basis for reconstruction, are proposed in this manuscript. In addition, in order to diminish the long computation time required for reconstruction, two parallel implementations using Multi-core and GPU, are proposed. According to our research, these algorithms can be considered as effective and non-supervised solutions for urban extraction applications based on multispectral satellite imagery.
