Abstract

Extracting the needed portion from a bounded region is an important task in image processing. Editing a map and extracting a region from the map is challenging. It is useful in some contexts to have a region in a separate sheet. In this image processing, we have used the Flood Fill algorithm to extract a region from the image map. To achieve that goal, we had worked in our study to separate a bounded region on a map. Usually, a scanned map may contain a lot of useless information. So we have to process the image to remove useless information from the map. We had quantized the image to a binary one. In the second phase, we have applied a gray color to separate the desired position from a map. Our main objective of the study to extract a bounded region from mapping an image that contains useless information and removes it. We have experimented with several maps and it works successfully.
