An urban riverway extraction method is proposed for high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. First, the original image is partitioned into overlapping sub-image blocks, in which the sub-image blocks that do not cover riverways are regarded as background. Sub-image blocks covering riverways are then filtered using the iterative adaptive speckle reduction anisotropic diffusion (SRAD) that introduces the relative signal-to-noise ratio (RSNR). The filtered images are segmented quickly by the Sauvola algorithm, and the false riverway fragments are removed by the area and aspect ratio of the connected component in the segmentation results. Using the minimum convex hull of each riverway segment as the connection object, the seeds are automatically determined by the difference between adjacent pyramid layers, and the sub-image block riverway extraction result is used as the bottom layer. The discontinuity connection between river segments is achieved by multi-layer region growth. Finally, the processed sub-image blocks are stitched to get the riverway extraction results for the entire image. To verify the applicability and usefulness of the proposed approach, high-resolution SAR imagery obtained by the Gaofen-3 (GF-3) satellite was used in the assessment. The qualitative and quantitative evaluations of the experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively and completely extract complex urban riverways from high-resolution SAR images.
