The detection of people in urban environments from satellite imagery can be employed in a variety of applications, such as urban planning, business management, crisis management, military operations, and security. A WorldView-3 satellite image of Prague was processed. Several variants of feature-extracting networks, referred to as backbone networks, were tested alongside the Faster R–CNN model. This model combines region proposal networks with object detection, offering a balance between speed and accuracy that is well suited for dense and varied urban environments. Data augmentation was used to increase the robustness of the models, which contributed to the improvement of classification results. Achieving a high level of accuracy is an ongoing challenge due to the low spatial resolution of available imagery. An F1 score of 54% was achieved using data augmentation, a 15 cm buffer, and a maximum distance limit of 60 cm. |
