  • 2024.Hi-CNA dataset
    The Hi-CNA is a high-resolution remote sensing dataset for cropland non-agriculturalization (CNA) tasks, featuring high-quality semantic and change annotations for cropland. It covers over 1100 km² in Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong, and Hubei provinces in China, areas known for diverse crop planting patterns. The dataset includes two temporal phases: 2015-2017 and 2020-2022, capturing multiple crop phenological periods.The Hi-CNA dataset is derived from multispectral GF-2 fusion images with a 0.8m spatial resolution across four bands (visible and near-infrared). All images are cropped to 512x512, resulting in 6797 pairs of dual-temporal images with corresponding annotations. Paper: Sun et al., 2024

  • 2023.ChangeNet
    The ChangeNet dataset comprises 31,000 pairs of multi-temporal images, each with a resolution of 0.3 meters. It encapsulates a diverse array of complex scenes from 100 different cities. Additionally, the dataset includes six pixel-level annotated categories, which encompass the classes of "building," "farmland," "bareland," "water," "road," and "unchanged". Paper: Ji et al., 2023

  • 2023.SMARS (Simulated Multimodal Aerial Remote Sensing) dataset
    SMARS is a large-scale synthetic dataset, comprising pairs of scenarios simulating urban changes, designed for training and validating change detection applications, as well as urban segmentation and building extraction tasks. The dataset simulates the terrains of two European cities: Paris and Venice, generating scenario pairs named SParis and SVenice, each accompanied by ortho-images and Digital Surface Models (DSMs). Changes between the before and after scenarios are simulated, with the latter having more buildings, less green space, and some simulated demolished buildings. To enhance similarity with real data, input images are further processed into ortho-photos and digital elevation models through a standard photogrammetric process, including different lighting conditions and other effects, such as blurred building boundaries. Reference ground truth maps are directly used for training and validation of change detection, building extraction, and urban segmentation tasks. The data is rendered at two Ground Sampling Distances (GSDs) of 30cm and 50cm. Each tile, from left to right, includes: optical image, DSM, semantic and building masks. For change detection, the difference between two events is used as the ground truth. Paper: Reyes et al., 2023

  • 2023.HRCUS-CD (High-Resolution Complex Urban Scene Change Detection)
    The proposed High-Resolution Complex Urban Scene Change Detection (HRCUS-CD) dataset consists of 11,388 pairs of cropped high-resolution remote sensing images. The image size is 256 × 256 pixels with a resolution of 0.5 meters. The dataset includes over 12,000 annotated instances of changes. The data was collected in Zhuhai, China. It contains two main acquisition areas from two image sources: the first is mainly the urban built-up area, with a time span from 2019 to 2022. Considering the short time interval and the fact that this area is mostly built-up, the building changes’ areas are small. The second area spans from 2010 to 2018, and contains farmland and mountains, with a small number of old civil houses and buildings in the early period, and the area of building change is large later. These two types of high-resolution RSIs focus on built-up areas and new urban areas. Paper: Zhang et al., 2023

  • 2023.GVLM

Each sub-dataset contains a pair of bitemporal images and the corresponding ground-truth map. The landslide sites in different geographical locations have various sizes, shapes, occurrence times, spatial distributions, phenology states, and land cover types, resulting in considerable spectral heterogeneity and intensity variations in the remote sensing imagery. The GVLM dataset can be used to develop and evaluate machine/deep learning models for change detection, semantic segmentation and landslide extraction. Paper: Zhang et al., 2023

  • 2023.EGY-BCD

The dataset contains 6091 pairs of small images of size 256×256 and is randomly divided into three sets: a training set (70%), a validation set (20%), and a test set (10%). The ground-truth data for each pair of images is labeled into two categories, "no-change" or "change," to train the proposed network. Paper: Holail et al.2023

  • 2023.SI-BU dataset
    The SI-BU dataset comprises post-phase satellite imagery captured from Google Earth (Google Inc.) in 2021 of Guiyang, Guizhou province, China, along with corresponding labels. The dataset covers an area of approximately 172 km2 and contains buildings of varying height, scale, and appearance.

The labels indicate four categories: background, unchanged buildings, newly constructed buildings, and removed buildings, which are assigned values of 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The labels were meticulously annotated by image interpretation experts to indicate changes between the images and building masks collected from the same location in 2019. The dataset exhibits an off-nadir problem, particularly for high-rise buildings, due to the offset between building rooftops and footprints, which makes it challenging to automatically extract building changes from the dataset.

  • 2021 IEEE GRSS Data Fusion Contest: Track MSD (Multitemporal Semantic Change Detection) (GRSS, Microsoft. Jan 2021)
    The task of Track MSD is to create bitemporal high resolution land cover maps using only low-resolution and noisy land cover labels for training. Such a scenario is often encountered around the world, as the proliferation of new sensors with either high spatial resolution (submeter) or high temporal resolution (weekly or even daily) remains unmatched by equally rich label data. Instead, detecting change would have to rely on the analysis of a sequence of input images in an unsupervised manner or with aid of weak, noisy, and outdated labels. Paper: Li Z et al. 2022.
