Recognize image by URL in C#
Automatically detect regions containing text paragraphs, detect skew and recognize text on image by URL using Aspose.OCR for .NET library.
How to get text from URL using C#
To get texts, areas coordinates and skew from images, provided in OcrInput object, use Aspose.OCR.AsposeOcr.Recognize method. Specify Aspose.OCR.RecognitionSettings. By default in our examle we use DetectAreasMode = DOCUMENT, AutoSkew = true and no any additional filters. Set InpuType as URL to recognize image by URLCommand line tools
RecognizeImageFromUri project
Run program in Command Prompt

or
Run program in Command Prompt if you want to use own URL

Recognition result
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
FileName | String | Full path to the file. |
RecognitionAreasRectangles | List | Gets rectangles coordinates. |
RecognitionAreasText | List | Gets list recognition results of a list of areas (Rectangles). |
RecognitionCharactersList | List<char[]> | A set of characters found by the recognition algorithm and arranged in descending order of probability. |
RecognitionLinesResult | List | |
RecognitionText | string | Gets recognition result in one string. |
Skew | double Gets skew angle. | |
Warnings | List | Gets list of the warning messages describing non-critical faults appeared during generation. |
This sample code shows how to recognize image
// Set the license file
//License lic = new License();
//lic.SetLicense("Aspose.Total.lic");
// Create AsposeOcr instance.
// You can use the overloaded constructor to set characters restriction.
AsposeOcr api = new AsposeOcr();
// Create OcrInput object to containerize images
// Add filters as you need
// PreprocessingFilter filters = new PreprocessingFilter // we automaticaly preprocess your image, but if your recognition result still bad, you can set up the set of filters by your own
// {
// PreprocessingFilter.Dilate()
// },
OcrInput input = new OcrInput(InputType.URL/*, filters*/);
input.Add(uri);
Console.Write($"TEST URI: ");
Console.ResetColor();
Console.WriteLine($" {input[0].Source}");
List<RecognitionResult> res = api.Recognize(input, new RecognitionSettings
{
//// allowed options
// AllowedCharacters = CharactersAllowedType.LATIN_ALPHABET, // ignore not latin symbols
// AutoContrast = false, // use Contrast correction filter before recognition - good for images with noice
// AutoSkew = true, // switch off if your image not rotated
// DetectAreas = true, // switch off if your image has a simple document structure (one column text without pictures)
// DetectAreasMode = DetectAreasMode.DOCUMENT, // depends on the structure of your image
// IgnoredCharacters = "*-!@#$%^&", // define the symbols you want to ignore in the recognition result
// Language = Language.Eng, // we support 26 languages
// LinesFiltration = false, // this works slowly, so choose it only if your picture has lines and it they bad detected in TABLE ar DOCUMENT DetectAreasMode
// PreprocessingFilters = new PreprocessingFilter // we automaticaly preprocess your image, but if your recognition result still bad, you can set up the set of filters by your own
// {
// PreprocessingFilter.Dilate()
// },
// RecognitionAreas = new System.Collections.Generic.List<System.Drawing.Rectangle> // set this if you want to recognize only partiqular regions on the image
// {
// new System.Drawing.Rectangle(0,0,10,20)
// },
// RecognizeSingleLine = false, // set this true if your image has only one text line (without other objects)
// SkewAngle = 5, // use this if your want to switch on out automatically skew correction and set up your own angle
// ThreadsCount = 1, // by default our API use all you threads. But you can run it in one thread. Simply set up this here
// ThresholdValue = 150 // if you want to binarize image with your own threashold value, you can set up this here (from 1 to 255
