The procedure of the method is totally automated to detect sunspots and compression with NOAA catalogue shows sunspot recognition rate is 97.8%. The number of sunspots detected by methods shows acquit good agreement with NOAA catalogue Furthermore, calculate the filling factor for W.L. 607nm and compared with SOHO satellite has been presented. The sunspot areas calculated by this method have a high correlation with SOHO in the same period it is 99%.}, }
