Aerial Image Segmentation
Overview
Research prototype for my university UAV team: deep-learning segmentation of aerial imagery, satellite and drone, into buildings, roads, and vegetation for geospatial mapping. Built with PyTorch on 500+ annotated images.
Challenge
Key challenges included handling variations in image resolution and lighting conditions, developing accurate segmentation models with limited annotated datasets, and optimizing model performance on resource-constrained hardware.
Result
The research produced a prototype segmentation model based on deep learning, demonstrating promising accuracy on a limited test dataset. It provided valuable insights into the challenges of aerial image segmentation and recommendations for future development, such as data augmentation and model fine-tuning.
