With the features of substantial data and complex landmark, remote sensing images need a higher requirement for edge detection operator. Due to the limitations of grads operator and Canny operator in edge detection, this paper presents an edge detection method based on 2-D Gabor wavelet real part and the experimental analysis shows this method was better on edge detection.
