Part 2: Creating a Classified map of the Colombian Wetlands using Keras and and Tensorflow

This is Part two of a report on a capstone project performed with Victor Gutierrez-Velez in the Remote Sensing and Sustainability Lab at Temple University. We will discuss our work expanding and customizing the model created by reachsumit in order to classify imagery of the Colombian wetlands obtained from Planet Labs.

Part One of this report provided an introductory tutorial on training and using a Deep Learning model to create a classified map using image segmentation.

Part 1: TUTORIAL: Creating a Classified Map Using Keras and Tensorflow

In my research with Victor Gutierrez-Velez in the Remote Sensing and Sustainability Lab at Temple University, this project involved investigating the applicability of Deep Learning and Neural Networks for automatically classifying high-resolution multi-spectral remote sensing imagery of wetlands in Colombia. This work was performed as part of my capstone project as a culmination of a Professional Science Master’s in GIS from the Department of Geography and Urban Studies at Temple University.

This post contains Part 1 of the report, and will walk through building a model using Python, Keras, and Tensorflow, and creating a classified map using code created by github user reachsumit.

Cooling and Greening Philadelphia: Changes in Roof Coating and Green Landcover Between 2010-2017

This analysis will use-high resolution satellite imagery to measure the effect that these forces have had on the amount of vegetative landcover and the amount of roofs with a reflective silver coating.
