Abstract :
This paper proposes a framework for automatic extraction, description and recognition of communication networks (road and river networks) from satellite SPOT images. The main idea is to use a hybrid process to progressively go from low level detection to high level description of the networks. Results are presented on a SPOT satellite image around Poyang Lake, in China
