The invention discloses a rural resident point
information extraction method based on a high-resolution remote-sensing image. The rural resident point
information extraction method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out Canny
edge detection on the high-resolution remote-sensing image, and obtaining a vector edge line through
chain code tracking; then, carrying out Douglas-Peucker abbreviation on a vector edge to extract straight-line segments, and rejecting shorter straight-line segments and keeping longer straight-line segments according to length constraints; secondly, according to
adjacency relation between the straight-line segments and included angle constraints, extracting straight angle points, calculating the density characteristics of the straight angle points within a certain space region range, and generating a straight angle
point density characteristic image, wherein the characteristic image and the input high-resolution remote-sensing image have same spatial range and spatial resolution; and finally, carrying out binarization
processing on the density characteristic image by utilizing Otsu, extracting rural resident point vector pattern spots through
connected component analysis so as to extract rural resident point information. Precision and effects are improved, and robustness and universality are better.
