Mathematical morphology is a powerful tool in digital image processing and analysis. Thanks to morphological operations, we can in a sense bring the process of digital image processing closer to the process of perception, by taking into account the context in which the pixels are placed in the image. The book provides an overview and description of selected operations of mathematical morphology, including basic morphological operations, operations with multiple structuring elements, morphological gradients and Laplacians, hit-or-miss transformations, geodesic transformations and morphological filters.

The book presents numerous examples of the application of morphological operations in the processing of digital images in remote sensing, including aerial and satellite optical images, radar images and lidar images. You will also find an overview and discussion of free software enabling the use of morphological operations, including a description of the proprietary BlueNote software, which is entirely dedicated to mathematical morphology.

This publication is aimed at a wide audience, including students, doctoral students, researchers and practitioners specializing in remote sensing, photogrammetry and, in general, image processing, as well as computer scientists. Regardless of your level of advancement, this book will provide you with solid knowledge and practical skills in the field of mathematical morphology.
