Automatic and fast image interpretation is important for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image exploitation. Generally, image interpretation refers to target detection and information extraction. To generate information report automatically and efficiently, we developed and demonstrated a fast and automatic information system for SAR image in this paper. The proposed information system consists of four components respectively used for detection, discrimination, information production and database management. To evaluate the performance of the system, we tested it on our own SAR images placed tank targets downloaded from the DARPA MSTAR public distribution. Experiment results show the proposed system is effective and advantageous in real-time applications.
