Abstract
In this method, image taken from satellite is used as input. Input image is preprocessed for removing noise and contrast adjustment. After preprocessing, detection of ROI is done for irregular and perfect region. Then region growing segmentation is used for accurate estimation of region that is for finding exact and accurate edges of ROI. This region is classified in different types such as land, water, forest etc. using SVM Classifier. Measurement of region is done in terms of pixels and these pixels are converted into actual measurement units.
Keywords: Region of interest, support vector machine.
