Description
Summary:Deep learning approaches are gaining popularity in image feature analysis and in attaining state-of-the-art performances in scene classification of remote sensing imagery. This article presents a comprehensive review of the developments of various computer vision methods in remote sensing. There is currently an increase of remote sensing datasets with diverse scene semantics; this renders computer vision methods challenging to characterize the scene images for accurate scene classification effectively. This paper presents technology breakthroughs in deep learning and discusses their artificial intelligence open-source software implementation framework capabilities. Further, this paper discusses the open gaps/opportunities that need to be addressed by remote sensing communities.
