About Me

I am an Environmental Engineer and Professor with a doctorate in Engineering, focusing on Environmental Technologies, and a postdoctoral degree in Natural Resources. My passion lies in Remote Sensing and Vegetation Analysis, and I'm interested in how Artificial Intelligence can revolutionize this field.

Projects

AI-Remote Sensing - AI-RemoteSensing is a collection of Jupyter and Google Colaboratory notebooks dedicated to leveraging Artificial Intelligence in Remote Sensing applications. This repository serves as an open-source platform for researchers, educators, and professionals to explore, learn, and expand their knowledge in this exciting intersection of technologies.
Segment-Geospatial - Segment-Geospatial is a Python package dedicated to segmenting geospatial data with the Segment Anything Model (SAM). Through the segment-anything-py and segment-geospatial Python packages, we aim to simplify the process of leveraging SAM for geospatial data analysis, enabling users to achieve this with minimal coding effort.

Organizations

Open Geospatial Solutions - Open Geospatial Solutions is a collective of open-source geospatial software projects, developed and maintained by a community of geospatial software developers and researchers. All projects under Open Geospatial Solutions are free to use, modify, and are licensed under the MIT license. The organization promotes open-source resources and collaboration for researchers, educators, and professionals in the field of geospatial data science.

Published Work

The Potential of Visual ChatGPT For Remote Sensing - This paper investigates the potential of Visual ChatGPT in remote sensing. Our findings expose the model's limitations but also forecast its transformative potential in remote sensing image processing. Here we discuss how Visual Large Language Models (LLMs) can be used in the remote sensing domain and assist users with image processing tasks.
A Review on Deep Learning in UAV Remote Sensing - This comprehensive review examines 232 papers featuring Deep Learning applications with UAV-acquired data. Our findings underscore Deep Learning's promise in processing UAV-based image data, particularly within environmental, urban, and agricultural contexts.
The Segment Anything Model (SAM) for Remote Sensing Applications: From Zero to One Shot - We examine Meta AI's Segment Anything Model (SAM) for remote sensing. Despite certain limitations, SAM's promising performance across diverse contexts underscores its potential in this domain. We increased SAM's accuracy and reduced manual annotation by combining general examples and one-shot training. We suggest further enhancements and provide our modifications' open-source code for broader SAM adaptations.
