Abstract: An automatic detection model for ship target in RADARSAT SAR images is described and assessed. The major tasks to be performed by this model are firstly to mask out land regions in a coastal image and secondly to detect ship targets in sea region. This paper presents current progress made on the detection model. Some detection examples of RADARSAT SAR images are also shown.
