Leonardo Sant, Anna Bins, Leila Maria Garcia, Guaraci J. Erthal, Fernando Mitsuo · 1996
This work presents a segmentation method based on a region growing approach. It has been implemented in the geographic information and image processing system (SPRING) which has been developed at INPE. The technique is applied to segment images which are being used to assess land use changes in the Amazon region. Segmented Landsat-TM images are shown to illustrate the technique.
