    Abstract: The present invention relates to an obstacle detection method implemented by an obstacle detection system on-board an aircraft, the aircraft including at least one on-board camera having an associated field of view configured to acquire full-field digital images. The method comprises the steps of: (a)—reception (50) of at least one full-field digital image captured by said at least one on-board camera, b)—determination (54) of a spatial position of a zone of interest of predetermined size in said full-field digital image, and extraction (56) of said zone of interest from said full-field digital image, c)—implementation of an obstacle detection module (58) on said extracted zone of interest, implementing a neural network previously trained to detect and classify obstacles in images having said predetermined size, each obstacle detected being located in said zone of interest.
