Abstract
Mapping of tree crowns is important in agriculture and ecology. Current manual systems of tree crown mapping are cumbersome and inefficient. In recent years, UAVs are emerging as a platform for remote sensing that complements traditional satellite based remote sensing systems. Remote sensing from a UAV also known as Low Altitude Remote Sensing (LARS) provides interesting options for agriculture since they allow study of crops at a sub decimeter ground separation distance (GSD). We propose Banana-Seg fully Convolutional deep neural network architecture for mapping of tree crowns in aerial imagery. Banana-Seg is a two dimensional Convolutional Neural Network (2D-CNN) architecture. The performance of tree crown mapping using Banana-Seg is evaluated by performance parameters derived from a confusion matrix or contingency matrix. Precision, recall, accuracy and F1- score performance are evaluated. The performance of Banana-Seg method is compared with a one dimensional CNN (1D-CNN) architecture. Further, visualization of performance is presented for several test images. The results indicate that the proposed Banana-Seg architecture outperforms the 1D-CNN method.
