Image Mask is a configurable app template for identifying areas of an image that have changed over time or that meet user-set thresholds for calculated spectral indexes. The template also includes tools for measurement, recording locations, and more.App users can zoom to bookmarked areas of interest (or search for their own), select any of the imagery layers from the associated web map to analyze, use a time slider or dropdown menu to select images, then choose between the Change Detection or Mask tools to produce results.Image Mask users can do the following:Zoom to bookmarked areas of interest (or bookmark their own)Select specific images from a layer to visualize (search by date or another attribute)Use the Change Detection tool to compare two images in a layer (see options, below)Use the Mask tool to highlight areas that meet a user-set threshold for common spectral indexes (NDVI, SAVI, a burn index, and a water index). For example, highlight all the areas in an image with NDVI values above 0.25 to find vegetation.Annotate imagery using editable feature layersPerform image measurement on imagery layers that have mensuration capabilitiesExport an imagery layer to the user's local machine, or as a layer in the user’s ArcGIS accountUse CasesA student investigating urban expansion over time using Esri’s Multispectral Landsat image serviceA farmer using NAIP imagery to examine changes in crop healthAn image analyst recording burn scar extents using satellite imageryAn aid worker identifying regions with extreme drought to focus assistanceChange detection methodsFor each imagery layer, give app users one or more of the following change detection options:Image Brightness (calculates the change in overall brightness)Vegetation Index (NDVI) (requires red and infrared bands)Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) (requires red and infrared bands)Water Index (requires green and short-wave infrared bands)Burn Index (requires infrared and short-wave infrared bands)For each of the indexes, users also have a choice between three modes:Difference Image: calculates increases and decreases for the full extent Difference Mask: users can focus on significant change by setting the minimum increase or decrease to be masked—for example, a user could mask only areas where NDVI increased by at least 0.2Threshold Mask: The user sets a threshold and magnitude for what is masked as change. The app will only identify change that’s above the user-set lower threshold and bigger than the user-set minimum magnitude.Supported DevicesThis application is responsively designed to support use in browsers on desktops, mobile phones, and tablets.Data RequirementsCreating an app with this template requires a web map with at least one imagery layer.Get Started This application can be created in the following ways:Click the Create a Web App button on this pageShare a map and choose to Create a Web AppOn the Content page, click Create - App - From Template Click the Download button to access the source code.

Today, deep neural networks are widely used in many computer vision problems, also for geographic information systems (GIS) data. This type of data is commonly used for urban analyzes and spatial planning. We used orthophotographic images of two residential districts from Kielce, Poland for research including urban sprawl automatic analysis with Transformer-based neural network application.Orthophotomaps were obtained from Kielce GIS portal. Then, the map was manually masked into building and building surroundings classes. Finally, the ortophotomap and corresponding classification mask were simultaneously divided into small tiles. This approach is common in image data preprocessing for machine learning algorithms learning phase. Data contains two original orthophotomaps from Wietrznia and Pod Telegrafem residential districts with corresponding masks and also their tiled version, ready to provide as a training data for machine learning models.Transformed-based neural network has undergone a training process on the Wietrznia dataset, targeted for semantic segmentation of the tiles into buildings and surroundings classes. After that, inference of the models was used to test model's generalization ability on the Pod Telegrafem dataset. The efficiency of the model was satisfying, so it can be used in automatic semantic building segmentation. Then, the process of dividing the images can be reversed and complete classification mask retrieved. This mask can be used for area of the buildings calculations and urban sprawl monitoring, if the research would be repeated for GIS data from wider time horizon.Since the dataset was collected from Kielce GIS portal, as the part of the Polish Main Office of Geodesy and Cartography data resource, it may be used only for non-profit and non-commertial purposes, in private or scientific applications, under the law "Ustawa z dnia 4 lutego 1994 r. o prawie autorskim i prawach pokrewnych (Dz.U. z 2006 r. nr 90 poz 631 z późn. zm.)". There are no other legal or ethical considerations in reuse potential.Data information is presented below.wietrznia_2019.jpg - orthophotomap of Wietrznia districtmodel's - used for training, as an explanatory imagewietrznia_2019.png - classification mask of Wietrznia district - used for model's training, as a target imagewietrznia_2019_validation.jpg - one image from Wietrznia district - used for model's validation during training phasepod_telegrafem_2019.jpg - orthophotomap of Pod Telegrafem district - used for model's evaluation after training phasewietrznia_2019 - folder with wietrznia_2019.jpg (image) and wietrznia_2019.png (annotation) images, divided into 810 tiles (512 x 512 pixels each), tiles with no information were manually removed, so the training data would contain only informative tilestiles presented - used for the model during training (images and annotations for fitting the model to the data)wietrznia_2019_vaidation - folder with wietrznia_2019_validation.jpg image divided into 16 tiles (256 x 256 pixels each) - tiles were presented to the model during training (images for validation model's efficiency); it was not the part of the training datapod_telegrafem_2019 - folder with pod_telegrafem.jpg image divided into 196 tiles (256 x 265 pixels each) - tiles were presented to the model during inference (images for evaluation model's robustness)Dataset was created as described below.Firstly, the orthophotomaps were collected from Kielce Geoportal (https://gis.kielce.eu). Kielce Geoportal offers a .pst recent map from April 2019. It is an orthophotomap with a resolution of 5 x 5 pixels, constructed from a plane flight at 700 meters over ground height, taken with a camera for vertical photos. Downloading was done by WMS in open-source QGIS software (https://www.qgis.org), as a 1:500 scale map, then converted to a 1200 dpi PNG image.Secondly, the map from Wietrznia residential district was manually labelled, also in QGIS, in the same scope, as the orthophotomap. Annotation based on land cover map information was also obtained from Kielce Geoportal. There are two classes - residential building and surrounding. Second map, from Pod Telegrafem district was not annotated, since it was used in the testing phase and imitates situation, where there is no annotation for the new data presented to the model.Next, the images was converted to an RGB JPG images, and the annotation map was converted to 8-bit GRAY PNG image.Finally, Wietrznia data files were tiled to 512 x 512 pixels tiles, in Python PIL library. Tiles with no information or a relatively small amount of information (only white background or mostly white background) were manually removed. So, from the 29113 x 15938 pixels orthophotomap, only 810 tiles with corresponding annotations were left, ready to train the machine learning model for the semantic segmentation task. Pod Telegrafem orthophotomap was tiled with no manual removing, so from the 7168 x 7168 pixels ortophotomap were created 197 tiles with 256 x 256 pixels resolution. There was also image of one residential building, used for model's validation during training phase, it was not the part of the training data, but was a part of Wietrznia residential area. It was 2048 x 2048 pixel ortophotomap, tiled to 16 tiles 256 x 265 pixels each.

This layer was developed by the Research & Analytics Division of the Atlanta Regional Commission to represent area masks for various regions across Georgia.

This datalayer is part of a group of layers used for research in the Ipswich River Watershed. This datalayer is a mask of the area within the towns that make up the Ipswich River Watershed study area. The area on this mask is the complete town area of each town, and as such includes areas that are not actually within the watershed. This map has full information and was derived from the “ip30_noinfo_townmask” image. To be used to maske out area not within any town within the Ipswich River Watershed.

Segmentation models perform a pixel-wise classification by classifying the pixels into different classes. The classified pixels correspond to different objects or regions in the image. These models have a wide variety of use cases across multiple domains. When used with satellite and aerial imagery, these models can help to identify features such as building footprints, roads, water bodies, crop fields, etc.Generally, every segmentation model needs to be trained from scratch using a dataset labeled with the objects of interest. This can be an arduous and time-consuming task. Meta's Segment Anything Model (SAM) is aimed at creating a foundational model that can be used to segment (as the name suggests) anything using zero-shot learning and generalize across domains without additional training. SAM is trained on the Segment Anything 1-Billion mask dataset (SA-1B) which comprises a diverse set of 11 million images and over 1 billion masks. This makes the model highly robust in identifying object boundaries and differentiating between various objects across domains, even though it might have never seen them before. Use this model to extract masks of various objects in any image.Using the modelFollow the guide to use the model. Before using this model, ensure that the supported deep learning libraries are installed. For more details, check Deep Learning Libraries Installer for ArcGIS.

This vector tile layer provides a buffered mask around an area of interest (AOI), in this case Africa. The layer can be overlayed on other basemaps and operational layers to call attention to the AOI within the mask. This layer is designed for a dark basemap.The layer is a vector tile layer so it is designed to (a) perform well at multiple scale levels and (b) be customized as needed to work well with other basemaps or layers. The vector tile layer can be added to the basemap layer of a web map and set as a reference layer, if needed, to mask other reference layers in the map.

Dataset contains building locations in Poland in 1970-80s. The source information were polish archival 1:10 000 topographical maps. Buildings were extracted from maps using Mask R-CNN model implemented in Esri ArcGIS Pro software. In post processing we have removed most of the false possitives. The dataset of building locations covers the entire country and contains approximately 11 million buildings. The accuracy of the dataset was assessed manually on randomly selected map sheets. The overall accuracy is 95% (F1 0.98).
