Abstract
Spatially location and working status of pollution sources are very important pieces of information for environment protection. Waste gas produced by fossil fuel consumption in the industry is mainly discharged to the atmosphere through a chimney. Therefore, detecting the distribution of chimneys and their working status is of great significance to urban environment monitoring and environmental governance. In this paper, we use an open access dataset BUAA-FFPP60 and the faster regions with convolutional neural network (Faster R-CNN) algorithm to train the preliminarily detection model. Then, the trained model is used to detect the chimneys in three high-resolution remote sensing images of Google Maps, which is located in Tangshan city. The results show that a large number of false positive targets are detected. For working chimney detection, the recall rate is 77.27%, but the precision is only 40.47%. Therefore, two spatial analysis methods, the digital terrain model (DTM) filtering, and main direction test are introduced to remove the false chimneys. The DTM is generated by ZiYuan-3 satellite images and then registered to the high-resolution image. We set an elevation threshold to filter the false positive targets. After DTM filtering, we use principle component analysis (PCA) to calculate the main direction of each target image slice, and then use the main direction to remove false positive targets further. The results show that by using the combination of DTM filtering and main direction test, more than 95% false chimneys can be removed and, therefore, the detection precision is significantly increased.
