Description

The detection of ship and estimation of its characteristics has its significance in tracking these sea vessels for surveillance. It also has its importance as an ancillary information for marine applications like oil spill detection and its source tracking. This paper is an aspiration towards exploring the strength of RISAT-1 data retrieved in circular transmit linear receive mode. We propose a method to select the detected ship and get the dimension estimation of the segmented ship for further decision making. The proposed method has been implemented in python and tested for various inputs. The verification of the same is done as a de-facto measure based on location or by supporting measurements obtained through Google Maps.
