Paper Abstract
With the increasing precision of recent spaceborne sensors, remotely sensed images have become exceedingly large.
These images are being used more and more often in the preparation of emergency maps when a disaster occurs. Visual
interpretation of these images is long and automatic pixel-based methods require a lot of memory, processing power and
time. In this paper, we propose to use a fast level-set image transformation in order to obtain a hierarchical
representation of image's objects. A scale profile is then extracted and included as a relevant feature for land-use
classification in urban areas. The main contribution of this paper is the analysis of the scale profile for remote sensing
applications. The data set from the earthquake that occurred on 12 January 2012 in Haiti is used.
