Solar Panel Defect Detection Using Geospatially-Aware Deep Learning framework
Abstract: Large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems demand reliable inspection techniques to maintain efficiency, as manual methods remain labor-intensive and inconsistent. This study introduces a geospatially informed deep learning framework for defect detection and localization in PV panels from drone and satellite imagery. The framework incorporates an adaptive tiling mechanism that adjusts tile boundaries according to object size, reducing information loss and enhancing detection performance. In addition, coordinate transformation between image pixels and …

Integrated Polarimetric-Interferometric Fusion for Heterogeneous Urban Signature Extraction
Abstract: Mapping heterogeneous urban environments using conventional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) backscatter intensity frequently produces classification errors due to spectral similarity between sparse built-up features, bare soil, and dry vegetation a challenge especially acute in semi-arid Deccan Plateau settings. This research presents a dual-path Pol- InSAR fusion framework that integrates polarimetric scattering decomposition and interferometric coherence stability to extract heterogeneous urban signatures over Beed Taluka, Maharashtra (area: 1,561.31 km²). A temporal …

Seasonal Dynamics of Coastal Landscapes: A Critical Review Using Remote Sensing and GIS
Abstract: Coastal landscapes are among the most dynamic environments on Earth, undergoing continuous transformation due to both natural processes and anthropogenic activities. In India, particularly along the southern coastal regions of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala, shoreline morphology and sediment transport patterns are significantly influenced by seasonal monsoons, cyclones, storm surges, waves, tides, and changing river discharges. These factors contribute to varying rates of coastal erosion, accretion, inundation, and land- …

Integrated Remote Sensing Indices for Assessing Pre-Monsoon Water Scarcity Vulnerability in a Semi-Arid Coastal Ecosystem: A Case Study of Barda Wildlife Sanctuary, Gujarat, India
Abstract: Freshwater availability fundamentally shapes the structure and function of dryland ecosystems, where evapotranspiration exceeds precipitation for most of the year. Protected areas in semiarid regions face intensifying hydrological stress from climate variability, growing wildlife populations, and resident human communities, yet systematic spatial assessments of water scarcity remain scarce for many critical habitats. The Barda Wildlife Sanctuary in coastal Gujarat, India, has recently become a secondary home for the endangered Asiatic …

Geo AI-Powered Urban Footprints
Abstract: In the contemporary era, building footprints are of paramount importance for accurate and current inventories in the development of infrastructure and geospatial analysis. Traditional methods, relying on manual digitization, were largely unsustainable as the urban regions were growing rapidly. Manual digitization was expensive and lacked geometric precision. This paper introduces an automated, end-to-end GEO AI-powered framework for high-end fidelity building footprint extraction from Google Satellite Data. Our approach for this …

Utilizing Artificial Intelligence and Remote Sensing to Predict Flooding in Real-Time and Address Climate Resilience Policy in South Asia
Abstract: South Asia, a region characterized by hydro-climatic instability, faces an intensifying risk from devastating flooding, aggravated by human-induced climate change and intricate river basin interactions. Traditional flood prediction systems, based on limited in-situ data and resource-intensive physical models, have serious delays and resolution problems that make it harder to reduce disaster risk. The combined applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and high-resolution remote sensing (RS) constitute a paradigm shift in real-time …

Fusion of deep learning autoencoders with random forest for wetland classification using Sentinel-2A data: A case study on Sirpur wetland
Abstract: Present study analyses the performance of deep leaning algorithm-autoencoder to reduce data dimension as compared to conventional models. Classification accuracies of Sirpur wetland using Sentinel 2A dataset with different inputs have also been studied. These inputs sets comprise the reconstructed data through compression of original 13 bands into 4 bands using decoder algorithm, first four Principal Components, all spectral bands, and spectral indices. Random Forest classifier (RF) is used to …

The Impact of Using High-Resolution Satellite Images on Improving Geographic Maps
Abstract: By integrating high-resolution satellite images into pre-existing mapping frameworks, this study tackles the problem of guaranteeing correctness and dependability in geospatial data updates. The main goal is to assess which satellite imagery sources—SuperView, Ikonos, QuickBird, and WorldView—are appropriate for updating maps at 1:2500 and 1:5000 scales. The process entails evaluating radiometric quality, geometric dependability, spatial correctness, and picture resolution and comparing the results to the specifications of different mapping tasks. …

Application of GIS tools to the Improvement of Energy Supply in PV Rooftop Installations
Abstract: Present work studies the energy supply from photovoltaic (PV) installations in industrial conglomerates using the rooftops as a surface to install the PV panels. The study is based on a modelling procedure that takes into account the specific characteristics of the rooftop, shape, size, azimuth and inclination, using GIS tools to identify these parameters for every single rooftop. Modelling has been developed modifying the tilt angle of the PV panel …

Rooftop Layout Optimization for PV Installation using GIS
Abstract: In this work, we develop a new modelling process to optimize the PV installation layout on industrial building rooftops; the model searches for maximizing the number of installed PV panels in a defined spot area, characterized by its shape, size, tilt and orientation. The study focuses on areas of latitude between tropics, but is useful for other latitudes. The method is applied to an industrial conglomerate of reference, made up …
