Detecting and masking cloud and cloud shadow from satellite remote sensing images is a pervasive problem in the remote sensing community. Accurate and efficient detection of cloud and cloud shadow is an essential step to harness the value of remotely sensed data for almost all downstream analysis. DeepMask, a new algorithm for cloud and cloud shadow detection in optical satellite remote sensing imagery, is proposed in this study. DeepMask utilizes ResNet, a deep convolutional neural network, for pixel-level cloud mask generation. The algorithm is trained and evaluated on the Landsat 8 Cloud Cover Assessment Validation Dataset distributed across 8 different land types. Compared with CFMask, the most widely used cloud detection algorithm, land-type-specific DeepMask models achieve higher accuracy across all land types. The average accuracy is 93.56%, compared with 85.36% from CFMask. DeepMask also achieves 91.02% accuracy on all-land-type dataset. Compared with other CNN-based cloud mask algorithms, DeepMask benefits from the parsimonious architecture and the residual connection of ResNet. It is compatible with input of any size and shape. DeepMask still maintains high performance when using only red, green, blue, and NIR bands, indicating its potential to be applied to other satellite platforms that only have limited optical bands.
Despite the remarkable advances in visual saliency analysis for natural scene images (NSIs), salient object detection (SOD) for optical remote sensing images (RSIs) still remains an open and challenging problem. In this paper, we propose an end-to-en
The binary segmentation of roads in very high resolution (VHR) remote sensing images (RSIs) has always been a challenging task due to factors such as occlusions (caused by shadows, trees, buildings, etc.) and the intra-class variances of road surface
Semantic change detection (SCD) extends the multi-class change detection (MCD) task to provide not only the change locations but also the detailed land-cover/land-use (LCLU) categories before and after the observation intervals. This fine-grained sem

Arising from the various object types and scales, diverse imaging orientations, and cluttered backgrounds in optical remote sensing image (RSI), it is difficult to directly extend the success of salient object detection for nature scene image to the
