Ecological surveys increasingly rely on large‐scale image datasets, typically terabytes of imagery for a single survey. The ability to collect this volume of data allows surveys of unprecedented scale, at the cost of expansive volumes of photo‐interpretati ...
This article introduces the task of visual question answering for remote sensing data (RSVQA). Remote sensing images contain a wealth of information, which can be useful for a wide range of tasks, including land cover classification, object counting, or de ...
Visual Question Answering for Remote Sensing (RSVQA) aims at extracting information from remote sensing images through queries formulated in natural language. Since the answer to the query is also provided in natural language, the system is accessible to n ...
Cultural ecosystem services (CES) are some of the most valuable contributions of ecosystems to human well- being. Nevertheless, these services are often underrepresented in ecosystem service assessments. Defining CES for the purposes of spatial quantificat ...
When applied to new datasets, acquired at different time moments, with different sensors or under different acquisition conditions, deep learning models might fail spectacularly. This is because they have learned from the data distribution observed during ...
The five papers in this special section focus on computer vision-based approaches for Earth observation. These papers followed a series of events promoting works at the interface between computer vision and remote sensing: the special sessions organized at ...
We study the problem of landuse characterization at the urban-object level using deep learning algorithms. Traditionally, this task is performed by surveys or manual photo interpretation, which are expensive and difficult to update regularly. We seek to ch ...
SAR and optical imagery provide highly complementary information about observed scenes. A combined use of these two modalities is thus desirable in many data fusion scenarios. However, any data fusion task requires measurements to be accurately aligned. Wh ...
Machine learning and deep learning in particular have made a huge impact in many fields of science and engineering. In the last decade, advanced deep learning methods have been developed and applied to remote sensing and geoscientific data problems extensi ...
In this paper, we study how to extract visual concepts to understand landscape scenicness. Using visual feature representations from a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), we learn a number of Concept Activation Vectors (CAV) aligned with semantic concepts ...
