# Model Card for YOLOv8 models for detecting marine vessels from RGB Sentinel-2 images
<!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->
## Model Details
### Model Description
<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. -->
These model weights are meant for detecting marine vessels from RGB Sentinel-2 imagery.
The models are trained and validated on human-annotated marine vessel data. These annotations, information of which Sentinel-2 product they correspond to, and instructions on how to convert them into COCO or YOLO format datasets will be made available as GeoPackage files on Zenodo portal in the near future.
- **Developed by:** Janne Mäyrä
- **Model type:** Object Detection
- **Finetuned from model:** YOLOv8 pretrained models
### Model Sources
<!-- Provide the basic links for the model. -->

## Uses
<!-- Address questions around how the model is intended to be used, including the foreseeable users of the model and those affected by the model. -->
### Direct Use
<!-- This section is for the model use without fine-tuning or plugging into a larger ecosystem/app. -->
Models are trained to process 320x320 pixel patches of Sentinel-2 RGB images with 10m resolution and detect marine vessels which are upsampled into 640x640 pixels during training and inference. The models will detect targets from outside of the water areas, but those detections can be eliminated by using external datasets such as land masks.
### Out-of-Scope Use
<!-- This section addresses misuse, malicious use, and uses that the model will not work well for. -->
These models are not suitable for other purposes than for detecting potential marine vessels from satellite imagery.
### Recommendations
<!-- This section is meant to convey recommendations with respect to the bias, risk, and technical limitations. -->
The models are most accurate on more closed water areas such as denser archipelagos and close to the coast instead of open sea. Especially during windy conditions the models incorrectly detect a large number of wakes and glint as marine vessels.
## How to Get Started with the Model
[https://github.com/mayrajeo/ship-detection] provides examples on how to use the models.
## Training Details
### Training Data
<!-- This should link to a Data Card, perhaps with a short stub of information on what the training data is all about as well as documentation related to data pre-processing or additional filtering. -->
The model is trained using the following Sentinel-2 mosaics and manually annotated marine vessel data. Archipelago sea 2 and Kvarken were used as test data. Other three locations were sliced into 320x320 pixel patches. These patches were then spatially split into five equal sized folds so that each fold contained data from all timesteps and locations, and all patch locations that contained an annotated vessel in any timestep were included in the folds. In total, this dataset contained 3264 320x320 pixel image patches, of which 1974 contained annotated vessels and 1290 were background patches.
The annotations are available as GeoPackages on Zenodo portal: [https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.10046341](https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.10046341)

#### Training Hyperparameters

## Evaluation
<!-- This section describes the evaluation protocols and provides the results. -->
### Testing Data, Factors & Metrics
#### Testing Data
<!-- This should link to a Data Card if possible. -->
Test data consists of six Sentinel-2 mosaics:
|Location|Date|Number of annotations|
|--------|----|---------------------|
|Bothnian sea|2021-07-14|450|
|Bothnian sea|2022-06-24|424|
|Bothnian sea|2022-08-13|399|
|Kvarken|2022-06-17|83|
|Kvarken|2022-07-12|183|
|Kvarken|2022-08-26|88|
#### Factors
<!-- These are the things the evaluation is disaggregating by, e.g., subpopulations or domains. -->
Before evaluating, the predictions for the test set are cleaned using the following steps:
1. All prediction whose centroid points are not located on water are discarded. The water mask used contains layers `jarvi` (Lakes), `meri` (Sea) and `virtavesialue` (Rivers as polygon geometry) from the Topographical database by the National Land Survey of Finland. Unfortunately this also discards all points not within the Finnish borders.
2. All predictions whose centroid points are located on water rock areas are discarded. The mask is the layer `vesikivikko` (Water rock areas) from the Topographical database.
3. All predictions that contain an above water rock within the bounding box are discarded. The mask contains classes `38511`, `38512`, `38513` from the layer `vesikivi` in the Topographical database.
4. All predictions that contain a lighthouse or a sector light within the bounding box are discarded. Lighthouses and sector lights come from Väylävirasto data, `ty_njr` class ids are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8
5. All predictions that are wind turbines, found in Topographical database layer `tuulivoimalat`
6. All predictions that are obviously too large are discarded. The prediction is defined to be "too large" if either of its edges is longer than 750 meters.
#### Metrics
<!-- These are the evaluation metrics being used, ideally with a description of why. -->
Precision and Recall with IoU-threshold of 0.5, mAP50 and mAP.
