[Insight-users] Segmentation -> Spatial objects

[David Dubois]

Hi Dan,

I'm trying to extract lines and rectangular shapes from a 2d satellite
image.  I'm using ITK from the Orfeo Toolbox (OTB) which is a extension
of ITK specialized in satellite images.

I did not see any filter that states it extracts spatial objects from
images.

Thank you for your help,

DD
