Description

The EuroSAT Dataset includes more than 54,000 Sentinel-2 satellite images, divided into land use classes such as annual crops, forests, industrial areas, roads, and bodies of water. The dataset includes RGB images as well as multispectral images in TIFF format, allowing detailed remote sensing analyses.

What is this dataset for?

  • Forming models for the classification of land uses in agriculture and the environment
  • Develop tools for geospatial analysis and monitoring of territorial changes
  • Testing computer vision algorithms on multispectral images

Can it be enriched or improved?

This dataset can be enriched by adding new recent images or by additional annotations (e.g. segmentation, object detection). Methods for increasing multispectral images are also possible to improve the diversity of data.
