Abstract A practical method is proposed in this paper for building extraction from remote sensing images with
high spatial resolution. Relevant features between building and its neighboring shade were used to establish the
method. The steps of the approach were as follows: First,the high-resolution merged image was constructed, which
combined the Grey Level Concurrence Matrix (GLCM) homogeneity texture feature and the normalized difference
vegetation index (NDVI) segmented by arithmetic of multi-resolution segments and two scale feature unit layers.
Second, water and land were separated by a threshold of normalized difference water indices (NDWI) based on the
larger scale object and then the underlying building region was extracted by the decision rule based on spectral
and shape features of the object from the land region according to the larger scale object layer. Third, shade was
extracted by the knowledge rule based on the mean value of the near infrared band of objects in the small-scale
objects layer. After that, the class-related feature neighboring the shade was defined. Finally, a building was
extracted from the building region by searching feature unit objects neighboring the shade. The experimental
result based on the QuickBird image shows that the proposed method is very effective and suitable for building
extraction from high spatial resolution remote images.
