Recent years have witness the new trend of developing satellite-based ships detection and management method. In this thesis, we introduce the potential ship detection and management method, which to the best of our knowledge, is the first one made for Vietnamese coastal region using high resolution pan images from VNREDSat-1. Operational experiments in two coastal regions including Saigon River and South China Sea with different conditions show that the performance of proposed ship detection is promising with average accuracies and recall of 92.4% and 93.2%, respectively. Furthermore, the ship detection method is robustness to different sea-surface and cloud cover conditions thus can be applied to new satellite image domain and new region. |
