Figure 3. Proposed system implementation on
pan-sharpened IKONOS image of Lavasan (Test Area 1)
Fig.3d is a 8><12 initialization grid on the road binary image
which are translated in active nodes by spatial C-Means
clustering in fig. 3e. In fig. 3f these active nodes are connected
using MST algorithm (Kruskal algorithm) and road centreline
are obtained which are overlaid on the original image in fig. 3g.

Figure 5. Proposed system implementation on
MS IKONOS image of Lavasan (Test Area 3)
Fig. 4a shows the second test area that is multi-spectral
IKONOS image of Lavasan (4m resolution and 115x101 pixels)
in semi-urban region. Fig. 4 b-g also shows the predefined
procedures of road extraction. Grey level differences of road
with its obstacles (for example curbs in this case), leads to
causing gaps in the road class binary image.
Kinking effect in fig. 4g is because of densification of grid
nodes in order to better presentation of the road shape.
