• Abstract: Vehicle detection in aerial and satellite images is still challenging due to their tiny appearance in pixels compared to the overall size of remote sensing imagery. Classical methods of object detection very often fail in this scenario due to violation of implicit assumptions made such as rich texture, small to moderate ratios between image size and object size. Satellite video is a very new modality which introduces temporal consistency as inductive bias. Approaches for vehicle detection in satellite video use either background subtraction, frame differencing or subspace methods showing moderate performance (0.26 - 0.82 $F_1$ score). This work proposes to apply recent work on deep learning for wide-area motion imagery (WAMI) on satellite video. We show in a first approach comparable results (0.84 $F_1$) on Planet's SkySat-1 LasVegas video with room for further improvement.

  We present Multiview Aerial Visual RECognition or MAVREC, a video dataset where we record synchronized scenes from different perspectives. MAVREC consists of around 2.5 hours of industry-standard 2.7K resolution video sequences, more than 0.5 million frames, and 1.1 million annotated bounding boxes. This makes MAVREC the largest ground and aerial-view dataset, and the fourth largest among all drone-based datasets.

• Autonomous Satellite Detection and Tracking using Optical Flow [0.0]
  An autonomous method of satellite detection and tracking in images is implemented using optical flow. Optical flow is used to estimate the image velocities of detected objects in a series of space images. The detection algorithm is exercised using both simulated star images and ground-based imagery of satellites.

• Deep Vehicle Detection in Satellite Video [0.0]
  Vehicle detection is perhaps impossible in single satellite images due to the tininess of vehicles (4 pixel) and their similarity to the background EO. A new model of a compact $3 times 3$ neural network is proposed which neglects pooling layers and uses leaky ReLUs. Empirical results on two new annotated satellite videos reconfirm the applicability of this approach for vehicle detection.

  This paper addresses the problem of vehicle-mounted camera localization by matching a ground-level image with an overhead-view satellite map. The key idea is to formulate the task as pose estimation and solve it by neural-net based optimization. Experiments on standard autonomous vehicle localization datasets have confirmed the superiority of the proposed method.
