In this research, a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system for high resolution satellite images has been developed by using texture features. The proposed approach uses the local binary pattern (LBP) texture feature and a block based scheme. The query and database images are divided into equally sized blocks, from which LBP histograms are extracted. The block histograms are then compared by using the Chi-square distance. Experimental results show that the LBP representation provides a powerful tool for high resolution satellite images (HRSI) retrieval.
