Increasing the Use of Satellite Images for Real-Time Data Access in Defence Applications to Accelerate Market Growth

A comprehensive understanding of Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) and satellite imagery has become an advantage and a necessity in today's asymmetric warfare. Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and 3D models of rural and urban regions may be produced quickly and reliably with the help of Airbus' Pleiades Neo military satellite. To determine if a target is mobile or fixed, high-resolution photos are particularly helpful. Furthermore, assets or targets can be recognized, identified, and detected down to the finest detail due to the Very High Resolution (VHR). Additionally, reliable topography data from satellite imagery helps the armed forces plan ahead and gain a comprehensive understanding of the situation. For instance, according to a report published by the Government of India, Digital Video Broadcasting-Satellite Version 2 (DVB-S2) technology has been added to the satellite-based communication network to improve efficiency and make the best use of available spectrum. More than 785 DCPW, State/UT Police, and CAPF-updated VSATs have been deployed.

This dataset contains images of the rooftops of French buildings, with a large portion of the images from metropolitan France available. Ultimately, it will include around 40,000,000 images, organized by department. This dataset is related to the scientific publication "Thebault, Nerot, Govehovitch, Ménézo - A comprehensive building-wise Residential Photovoltaic system detection in heterogeneous urban and rural areas: application to French territories" Applied Energy, 2025, doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2025.125630 Aerial Land Imagery The aerial imagery used in this study comes from the Institut National de l'Information Géographique et Forestière (IGN), the French national geographic institute. These images are provided in 25 km² RGB tiles with a resolution of 20 cm. The tiles are organized by French department and are freely accessible as JP2 raster files BD Ortho - Institut National Géographique. All the imagery utilized in this project is less than four years old. The availability of department-level imagery is fundamental to our methodology, as both cadastral data processing and the analysis of CNN model predictions are performed at this geographic scale. Building Registry The location and geometry of each building were extracted from a national building registry distributed by the French Etalab project. For each French department, a single SHP file is provided, containing building geometries stored as polygon features. Data Post-Processing Both raster (aerial imagery) and vector (building registry) data were processed using PyQGIS via QGIS. The preprocessing of vector data follows several steps. First, polygons with an area smaller than 10 m² were discarded, as they typically represent small, likely non-residential buildings, which are unlikely to host PV panels. Next, a 4-meter buffer was applied to each polygon to account for the frequent spatial discrepancies between the building registry and the actual building locations. To include additional contextual information in each final image and accommodate these shifts, each polygon was replaced with its oriented rectangular bounding box, minimizing the area of the box. Finally, the X and Y coordinates and a department-based unique identifier were added to each polygon feature. Creation of Building Images Each building polygon was intersected with the corresponding aerial imagery raster to generate a cropped image. These images were saved to individual files. For example, the Herault department (34), one of the more populated regions of France, contains approximately 700,000 images, with an average image size of 120x120 pixels. Notably, 97.9% of these images are smaller than 250x250 pixels. Approximately 1.5% of buildings span multiple raster tiles, resulting in final images that do not fully capture the entire rooftop. Ce jeu de donnée contient les images des toitures des batiments Française, une grande partie des images du territoire métropolitain Français sont disponible. A terme il contiendra environ 40 000 000 images, organisées par départements. Imagerie aérienne L’imagerie aérienne utilisée dans cette étude provient de l’Institut National de l’Information Géographique et Forestière (IGN), l’institut géographique national français. Ces images sont fournies sous forme de tuiles RGB de 25 km² avec une résolution de 20 cm. Les tuiles sont organisées par département français et sont accessibles gratuitement en tant que fichiers raster JP2 (BD Ortho - Institut National Géographique). Toutes les images utilisées dans ce projet ont moins de quatre ans. La disponibilité d’images aériennes à l’échelle départementale est fondamentale pour notre méthodologie, car à la fois le traitement des données cadastrales et l’analyse des prédictions du modèle CNN sont effectués à cette échelle géographique. Registre des bâtiments La localisation et la géométrie de chaque bâtiment ont été extraites d’un registre national des bâtiments distribué par le projet Etalab en France. Pour chaque département français, un fichier SHP unique est fourni, contenant les géométries des bâtiments sous forme de polygones. Post-traitement des données Les fichiers raster (imagerie aérienne) et vectoriels (registre des bâtiments) ont été traités avec PyQGIS via QGIS. Le prétraitement des données vectorielles suit plusieurs étapes. Tout d’abord, les polygones ayant une surface inférieure à 10 m² ont été exclus, car ils représentent généralement des petits bâtiments, probablement non résidentiels, qui sont peu susceptibles d’être équipés de panneaux photovoltaïques. Ensuite, un tampon de 4 mètres a été appliqué à chaque polygone afin de compenser les écarts fréquents entre les données cadastrales et l’emplacement réel des bâtiments. Pour inclure des informations contextuelles supplémentaires dans chaque image finale et tenir compte de ces décalages, chaque polygone a été remplacé par son rectangle englobant orienté, minimisant ainsi la surface du rectangle. Enfin, les coordonnées X...
