Project Abstract


Image databases are mandatory in studies of natural disasters. However, the tasks of collecting, curating and annotating images need tremendous human labor. To help automating those tasks, we developed an interactive tool that effectively suggests the image segmentation and annotation by applying transfer learning techniques and convolutional neural networks. We applied the tool to build a database of landslides from Google satellite images. Our models were able to produce highly accurate landslide segmentations and reduce the processing time from 8-10 minutes per image by human to seconds.
