Abstract

This paper presents building damage mapping based on transfer learning techniques. Due to the different spatial resolutions of optical (WorldView, 0.5m) and SAR (Sentinel-1, 10m), we adopt different methods: pixel-level for moderate-resolution SAR images, and patch-level for very high-resolution optical images. For SAR images, the performance of fast unsupervised transfer learning methods, such as overall centroid alignment (OCA) and CORrelation ALignment (CORAL), are investigated. For the optical images, two public databases are used to predict the building damage mapping of Palu with WorldView-3 images via ResNet50. Experimental results indicate the effectiveness of transfer learning on the building damage mapping using different data sources.
