Summary
Photovoltaic (PV) energy generation plays a crucial role in the energy transition. Small-scale PV installations are deployed at an unprecedented pace, and their integration into the grid can be challenging since stakeholders often lack quality data about these installations. Overhead imagery is increasingly used to improve the knowledge of distributed PV installations with machine learning models capable of automatically mapping these installations. However, these models cannot be easily transferred from one region or data source to another due to differences in image acquisition. To address this issue known as domain shift and foster the development of PV array mapping pipelines, we propose a dataset containing aerial images, annotations, and segmentation masks. We provide installation metadata for more than 28,000 installations. We provide ground truth segmentation masks for 13,000 installations, including 7,000 with annotations for two different image providers. Finally, we provide ground truth annotations and associated installation metadata for more than 8,000 installations. Dataset applications include end-to-end PV registry construction, robust PV installations mapping, and analysis of crowdsourced datasets.
This dataset contains the complete records associated with the article "A crowdsourced dataset of aerial images of solar panels, their segmentation masks, and characteristics", currently under review. The preprint is accessible at this link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.03726. These complete records consist of:

This dataset is a comprehensive inventory of Alaskan buildings, storage tanks, and roads that were: (1) detected from 0.5 meter resolution satellite imagery of communities (acquired between 2018-2023) and (2) supplemented by OpenStreetMap data. We created HABITAT (High-resolution Arctic Built Infrastructure and Terrain Analysis Tool), a deep learning-based, high-performance computing-enabled mapping pipeline to automatically detect buildings and roads from high-resolution Maxar satellite imagery across the Arctic region. Shapefiles beginning with "HABITAT_AK" contain only the post-processed deep learning predictions. Shapefiles beginning with "HABITAT_OSM" contain the post-processed deep learning predictions supplemented by OpenStreetMap data. The HABITAT pipeline is based on a ResNet50-UNet++ semantic segmentation architecture trained on a training dataset comprised of building and road footprint polygons manually digitized from Maxar satellite imagery across the circumpolar Arctic (including Alaska, Russia, and Canada). The code is made available at https://github.com/PermafrostDiscoveryGateway/HABITAT. From imagery of 285 Alaskan communities acquired between 2018-2023, we detected approximately 250,000 buildings and storage tanks (comprising a 41.76 million square meter footprint) and 15 million meters of road. Building (including storage tanks) footprint polygons and road centerlines were strictly mapped within the boundaries of Alaskan communities (both incorporated places and census designated places). After the deep learning model detected building and road footprints, post-processing was performed to smooth out building footprints, extract centerlines from road footprints, and remove falsely-detected infrastructure. In particular, a buffer is created around developed land cover identified by the 2016 Alaska National Land Cover Database map, and model predictions that fall outside of the buffer are assumed to be confused with non-infrastructure land cover. Finally, we selected buildings and roads from the OpenStreetMap Alaska dataset (downloaded in June 2024 from https://download.geofabrik.de/) that do not intersect with any deep learning predictions to generate a merged OSM and HABITAT infrastructure dataset. This merged product comprises a total building footprint of 53 million square meters and a road network of 63,744 km across the state of Alaska.

The use of high-resolution remotely sensed imagery can be an effective way to obtain quantitative measurements of rock-avalanche volumes and geometries in remote glaciated areas, both of which are important for an improved understanding of rock-avalanche characteristics and processes. We utilized the availability of high-resolution (~0.5 m) WorldView satellite stereo imagery to derive digital elevation data in a 100 km2 area around the 28 June 2016 Lamplugh rock avalanche in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Alaska. We used NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline, an open-source software package available from NASA, to produce one pre- and four post-event digital elevation models (DEMs) of the area surrounding the Lamplugh rock avalanche. This data release includes five raster elevation datasets (2-m resolution) in GeoTIFF format that have been orthrectified to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinate system (zone 7N). Elevations are measured in reference to the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84) ellipsoid. Because the study area is remote and difficult to access, ground control was not available to assess the absolute accuracy of DEMs. The DEMs have not been precisely co-registered. Data contained in this release include a pre-event DEM from 15 June 2016, and post-event DEMs from 16 July 2016, 27 August 2016, 27 September 2016, and 28 September 2016. The filenames for these DEMs are 20160615_LamplughDEM.tif, 20160716_LamplughDEM.tif, 20160827_LamplughDEM.tif, 20160927_LamplughDEM.tif, and 20160928_LamplughDEM.tif, respectively. We also provide a CSV file (Lamplugh_DEM_Image_Notes.csv) that contains the acquisition date, satellite platform, image identification number, resolution, off-nadir angle, and notes on image quality for each stereo pair used to generate DEMs.

A high-resolution, high vertical accuracy Digital Surface Model (DSM) of Mt. Etna was derived from Pleiades satellite data using the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Stereo Pipeline (ASP) tool set (https://ti.arc.nasa.gov/tech/asr/groups/intelligent-robotics/ngt/stereo/). The NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline (ASP) is a suite of free and open source automated geodesy and stereogrammetry tools designed for processing stereo imagery captured from satellites (around Earth and other planets), robotic rovers, aerial cameras, and historical imagery, with and without accurate camera pose information. The methodology used by the ASP software is similar with structure-from-motion (SfM) methodology using stereo triangulation combining spacecraft ephemeris/attitude information, sensor model, and disparity map information obtained by feature matching procedures. The model covers an area of about 400 km2 with a spatial resolution of 2 m and centers on the summit portion of th ...
The goal of the Alaska Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) project is to compile a time series data set of calibrated, georegistered daily observations and twice-monthly maximum normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) composites for Alaska's annual growing season (April-October). This data set has applications for environmental monitoring and for assessing impacts of global climate change. An Alaska AVHRR data set is comprised of twice-monthly maximum NDVI composites of daily satellite observations. The NDVI composites contain 10 bands of information, including AVHRR channels 1-5, maximum NDVI, satellite zenith, solar zenith, and relative azimuth. The daily observations, bands 1-9, have been calibrated to reflectance, scaled to byte data, and geometrically registered to the Albers Equal-Area Conic map projection. The 10th band is a pointer to identify the date and scene ID of the source daily observation (scene) for each pixel.
The compositing process required each daily overpass to be registered to a common map projection to ensure that from day to day each 1-km pixel represented the exact same ground location. The Albers Equal-Area Conic map projection provides for equal area representation, which enables easy measurement of area throughout the data. Each daily observation for the growing season was registered to a base image using image-to-image correlation.
The NDVI data are calculated from the calibrated, geometrically registered daily observations. The NDVI value is the difference between near-infrared (AVHRR Channel 2) and visible (AVHRR Channel 1) reflectance values divided by total measured reflectance. A maximum NDVI compositing process was used on the daily observations. The NDVI is examined pixel by pixel for each observation during the compositing period to determine and retain the maximum value. Often when displaying data covering large areas, such as AVHRR data, it is beneficial to include an overlay of either familiar linework for reflectance or polygon data sets to derive statistical summaries of regions. All of the linework images represent lines in raster format as 1-km cells and the strata are represented as polygons registered to the AVHRR data. The linework and polygon data sets include international boundaries, Alaskan roads with the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, and a raster polygon mask of the State.

Logged forests cover four million square kilometers of the tropics, capturing carbon more rapidly than temperate forests and harboring rich biodiversity. Restoring these forests is essential to help avoid the worst impacts of climate change. Yet monitoring tropical forest recovery is challenging. We track the abundance of early-successional species in a forest restoration concession in Indonesia. If the species are carefully chosen, they can be used as an indicator of restoration progress. We present SLIC-UAV, a new pipeline for processing Unoccupied Aerial Vehicle (UAV) imagery using simple linear iterative clustering (SLIC)to map early-successional species in tropical forests. The pipeline comprises: (a) a field verified approach for manually labeling species; (b) automatic segmentation of imagery into “superpixels” and (c) machine learning classification of species based on both spectral and textural features. Creating superpixels massively reduces the dataset's dimensionality and enables the use of textural features, which improve classification accuracy. In addition, this approach is flexible with regards to the spatial distribution of training data. This allowed us to be flexible in the field and collect high-quality training data with the help of local experts. The accuracy ranged from 74.3% for a four-species classification task to 91.7% when focusing only on the key early-succesional species. We then extended these models across 100 hectares of forest, mapping species dominance and forest condition across the entire restoration project.

1- Dataset Summary
Here we present a dataset of DEMs (Digital Elevation Models), orthomosaics, and lava area outlines for the August 2022 eruption at Fagradalsfjall, SW Iceland. The dataset consists of: (1) five aerial surveys collected over the course of the August 2022 Fagradalsfjall eruption, (2) one survey carried out on 14 August 2022 using Pléiades satellite stereo images, and (3) a larger aerial survey, covering the 2021 and 2022 eruption sites in late September 2022 after the volcanic activity concluded.
2- Background
The volcano at Fagradalsfjall, SW-Iceland, began erupting on 3 August 2022 at 13:20 following 10 months of quiescence. As part of the response plan, a series of photogrammetric surveys were conducted in rapid, operational mode throughout the duration of the eruption. Subsequent production of data products for natural hazards monitoring (lava maps, lava volumes, effusion rates) were calculated within hours and reported to the Icelandic Civil Defense, following a similar approach that described in Pedersen et al., 2022a and in Gouhier et al., 2022. At the start of the 2022 eruption, GCPs had not yet been placed around the new fissure, but reference data (orthomosaics and DEMs) which had been georeferenced using targets measured with differential GNSS existed of the eruption site from September 2021 from Pedersen et al. (2022b) were available to use as a reference in the new workflow instead of GCPs. Due to the urgent need from authorities for information about the new eruption, a processing method that avoids the time-consuming task of manual GCP selection using a reference image for georeferencing was preferable in this instance. Besides the acquisition of aerial photographs, the CIEST2 initiative was also re-activated to collect Pléiades stereo images in emergency mode (Gouhier et al., 2022).

4- Methods
4.1 Processing of the aerial photographs from 3-16 Aug 2022
Throughout the eruption, aerial surveys were conducted using a Hasselblad A6D 100 MP camera with 35 mm focal lens, from a height of 750 – 2,100 m above ground over the active lava field from an ultralight aircraft with a window in the bottom to allow for vertical photos to be taken (see supplement of Pedersen et al., 2022a for details and images of the setup). The camera was manually triggered to give ~70% overlap, and approximate flight lines were prepared beforehand for use with a handheld GPS during the flight to give ~30 % side overlap.
An automated processing pipeline was created in python, which leverages tools from the Ames Stereo Pipeline (ASP, Shean et al., 2016) and Agisoft Metashape stand-alone Python API (v. 1.8.4). The processing and georeferencing of the aerial data were done in three steps, with all steps being automated except for the digitization of lava outlines. First, using a very high-resolution reference orthomosaic and DEM created in September 2021 and georeferenced with ground control points (Pedersen et al., 2022b), interest points (IPs) in each image were matched with the reference dataset, using the ASP routine ipfind. This created GCPs for each image over stable terrain. Second, hillshades were created from both the reference DEM and the source dataset DEM and matches in IPs were found in both, creating a second round of ground control points to refine the georeferencing of the entire block. Finally, the alignment of the source DEM was refined using the dem_align (demcoreg) protocol from Shean et al. (2016) by applying a bulk linear shift in X, Y and Z which minimizes the vertical difference in stable terrain between the source and reference DEM.
4.2 Processing of the Pléiades stereo images
The Pléiades stereo images were processed using the Ames Stereo Pipeline, using the general workflow of mapproject and parallel_stereo (e.g., Deschamps-Berger et al., 2020). The parallel_stereo routine used default arguments, plus the following arguments:
--stereo-algorithm asp_mgm -t rpcmaprpc --corr-seed-mode 3 --corr-max-levels 2 --cost-mode 3 --subpixel-mode 9 --corr-kernel 7 7 --subpixel-kernel 15 15
We used the DEM from 4 Aug 2022 as the reference for mapproject and for the final DEM co-registration applied to the produced Pléiades DEM.
4.3 Processing of the 26 September 2022 dataset
The survey from 26 September 2022 was collected and processed using direct georeferencing from an on-board GPS antenna. The final alignment of the block was refined using the dem_align (demcoreg) protocol from Shean et al. (2016) by applying a bulk linear shift in X, Y and Z which minimizes the vertical difference in stable terrain between the source and reference DEM. Because this survey covered a much larger area, the reference DEM for the final coregistration was the ÍslandsDEM v.1.0 (Landmælingar Íslands, 2022).
4.4. Maps of the lava outlines, lava thickness, lava volume, Time Average Effusion Rate (TADR)
For each survey, a differential DEM (dDEM) showing elevation changes since the 2021 eruption was created by subtracting the reference DEM (ÍslandsDEM v.1.0, which includes the post-eruption DEM from Pedersen et al., 2022a) from the source DEM. Lava outlines, lava thickness lava volume, TADR and uncertainties were calculated using the methods described in Pedersen et al., 2022a. Table 2 summarizes calculations from this dataset.

Doodleverse/Segmentation Zoo/Seg2Map Res-UNet models for segmentation of buildings of RGB 1024x1024 high-res. images
Models have been created using Segmentation Gym* using the following dataset**: https://github.com/FrontierDevelopmentLab/multi3net
These Residual-UNet model data are based on 1m spatial footprint images and associated labels of buildings in Houston. Imagery made available through DigitalGlobe***
Image size used by model: 1024 x 1024 x 3 pixels

building
File descriptions
For each model, there are 5 files with the same root name:
1. '.json' config file: this is the file that was used by Segmentation Gym* to create the weights file. It contains instructions for how to make the model and the data it used, as well as instructions for how to use the model for prediction. It is a handy wee thing and mastering it means mastering the entire Doodleverse.
2. '.h5' weights file: this is the file that was created by the Segmentation Gym* function `train_model.py`. It contains the trained model's parameter weights. It can called by the Segmentation Gym* function `seg_images_in_folder.py`. Models may be ensembled.
3. '_modelcard.json' model card file: this is a json file containing fields that collectively describe the model origins, training choices, and dataset that the model is based upon. There is some redundancy between this file and the `config` file (described above) that contains the instructions for the model training and implementation. The model card file is not used by the program but is important metadata so it is important to keep with the other files that collectively make the model and is such is considered part of the model
4. '_model_history.npz' model training history file: this numpy archive file contains numpy arrays describing the training and validation losses and metrics. It is created by the Segmentation Gym function `train_model.py`
5. '.png' model training loss and mean IoU plot: this png file contains plots of training and validation losses and mean IoU scores during model training. A subset of data inside the .npz file. It is created by the Segmentation Gym function `train_model.py`
Additionally, BEST_MODEL.txt contains the name of the model with the best validation loss and mean IoU
