Automatic solar panel extraction from WorldView 3 panchromatic imagery using connected morphological attribute filters. The method involves extensive connected attribute operators configured with mask-based second generation connectivity and non-increasing shape attributes. The operators are implemented on the Min-Tree data structure. All attribute thresholds are fixed and no adaptation is required. The workflow considers additional layers like the re-sampled land-use & land-cover and building outlines for false positive reduction.
