Rapid and accurate extraction of shoreline is of great significance for the use and management of sea area. Remote sensing has a strong ability to obtain data and has obvious advantages in shoreline survey. Compared with visible-light remote sensing, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has the characteristics of all-weather and all-day working. It has been well-applied in shoreline extraction. However, due to the influence of natural conditions there is a problem of weak boundary in extracting shoreline from SAR images. In addition, the complex micro topography near the shoreline makes it difficult for traditional visual interpretation and image edge detection methods based on edge information to obtain a continuous and complete shoreline in SAR images. In order to solve these problems, this paper proposes a method to detect the land–sea boundary based on a geometric active contour model. In this method, a new symbolic pressure function is used to improve the geometric active-contour model, and the global regional smooth information is used as the convergence condition of curve evolution. Then, the influence of different initial contours on the number and time of iterations is studied. The experimental results show that this method has the advantages of fewer iteration times, good stability and high accuracy.
