Hi,

The paper describing this algorithm can be found here:
http://www.melaneum.com/documents/EChristophe-ICIP2007.pdf

> "We must also set the alpha parameter of the filter which allows us to tune 
> the width of the roads we
> want to extract. Typical value is 1.0 and should be working in most 
> situations.
>

alpha = width of the roads in pixels

> The amplitude threshold parameter tunes the sensitivity of the vectorization 
> step. A typical value is
> 5 · 10−5.

--> threshold for the detection after "gradient computation" (fig. 3 in the 
paper)

> The tolerance threshold tunes the sensitivity of the path simplification 
> step. Typical value is 1.0.

--> used to smooth the polylines (fig. 5 in the paper)

> The otb::RoadExtractionFilter is able to link path whose ends are near 
> according to an euclidean
> distance criterion. The threshold for this distance to link a path is the

the value of d in figure 6.
