• Abstract: Global environment monitoring is a task that requires additional attention in the contemporary rapid climate change environment. This includes monitoring the rate of deforestation and areas affected by flooding. Satellite imaging has greatly helped monitor the earth, and deep learning techniques have helped to automate this monitoring process. This paper proposes a solution for observing the area covered by the forest and water. To achieve this task UNet model has been proposed, which is an image segmentation model. The model achieved a validation accuracy of 82.55% and 82.92% for the segmentation of areas covered by forest and water, respectively.

  Aerial-view geo-localization tends to determine an unknown position through matching the drone-view image with the geo-tagged satellite-view image. We propose a Multiple-environment Self-adaptive Network (MuSe-Net) to adjust the domain shift caused by environmental changing. In particular, MuSe-Net employs a two-branch neural network containing one multiple-environment style extraction network and one self-adaptive feature extraction network.
