Daniel, that is brilliant, thanks for support! It works, however, I used the bavaria-dop80-checkpoint.pth directly when calling the “rs predict” command to analyse my own dataset/ orthophoto. The quality is pretty low. Yet, it does work! I will experiment a little bit and also add some negative samples according to Maning’s tutorial.

Could you tell me please, does RoboSat use any other pre-trained model format? You released the .pth file. Can I use a pre-trained model with a different file extension?

I also wonder, and that could help other users too, I believe - do you have any rough estimation on how many buildings on aerial imagery there should be in order to train model in a solid, reliable way, giving great prediction results eventually? Thank you Daniel. No more questions.

Best wishes, cheers, Karoline

Hello Daniel!

Many thanks for this post, your outcomes are really impressive!

As I am currently fascinated with trying the RoboSat out, tell me please, is it possible to take the released by you trained checkpoint [bavaria-dop80-release-1] and use it on my own UAV imagery? I have a ~2 cm orthophoto for a small area (roughly 30 buildings, however most of them are newly constructed) and no larger adjacent area is covered with orthophotos to train the model with…

So, the question is - can I use the pretrained model from Bavaria and use it on a small scale orthophoto located in other European country? To run predictions on my own ortho?

Huge thank you in advance for your kind help!

Best, Karoline
