In this paper, we discuss edge detection by first using a clustering algorithm followed by a known edge detection filter such as Canny or Generalized Edge Detector (GED). We developed a new clustering method called Self-Organizing Global Ranking (SOGR). Comparative results with multispectral satellite images including SOGR, SOM and K-Means clustering methods are discussed. The results show that the two-stage algorithms are better than single stage edge detector algorithms.
