Abstract :
Detecting edges is an important task in processing images in order to see objects from SAR data. In this work, the received data is first filtered and then back-projected. The edges are detected in both the x and y directions and results shown. SAR segmented images generated using this technique, are provided from a publicly available SAR data set. In our work, this technique is applied on real SAR data with significant results.
