Extracting Oil Palm Crown from WorldView-2 Satellite Image

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2014
Oil palm (OP) is the most commercial crop in Malaysia. Estimating the crowns is important for biomass estimation from high resolution satellite (HRS) image. This study examined extraction of individual OP crown from a WorldView-2 image using twofold algorithms, i.e., masking of Non-OP pixels and detection of individual OP crown based on the watershed ...
