The complete extraction of roads from remote sensing images (RSIs) is an emergent area of research. It is an interesting topic as it involves diverse procedures for detecting roads. The detection of roads using high-resolution-satellite-images (HRSi) is challenging because of the occurrence of several types of noise such as bridges, vehicles, and crossing lines, etc. The extraction of the correct road network is crucial due to its broad range of applications such as transportation, map updating, navigation, and generating maps. Therefore our paper concentrates on understanding the cognitive processes, reasoning, and knowledge used by the analyst through visual cognition while performing the task of road detection from HRSi. The novel process is performed emulating human cognition within cognitive task analysis which is carried out in five different stages. The suggested cognitive procedure for road extraction is validated with the fifteen HRSi of four different land cover patterns specifically developed-sub-urban (DSUr), developed-urban (DUr), emerging-sub-urban (ESUr), and emerging-urban (EUr). The experimental results and the comparative assessment prove the impact of the presented cognitive method.
