| Abstract |
Objectives: It is difficult for the traditional traffic information acquisition method to obtain the real-time dynamic traffic flow information of large scope and full coverage. With urbanization, the increasing number of supertall buildings makes the city skyline a favorable platform for earth observation. This paper studies the urban remote sensing video production and traffic information extraction method using the urban skyline as the observation platform. Methods: First, the earth observation data shooting is carried out in the super-tall buildings. Then, the original oblique observation data is corrected by orthography, which is further fused with the satellite image to generate a large range of remote sensing video data of the city. Finally, we train a deep learning model and use it for vehicle classification and identification. The number and density of vehicles in the area are calculated based on the identification results. Results: This paper carries out data collection and processing analysis on the sightseeing floor of Ping, an Building in Shenzhen. Results show that the proposed method can produce low-cost, long-time, large-scale and high-quality urban remote sensing video. The vehicle detection based on the remote sensing video have high accuracy.Conclusions: The proposed framework can be used to effectively monitor the regional traffic flow and sever for the smart city management. Furthermore, based on its capability of long-time, high-resolution, full-coverage and real-time remote sensing, this method can also be applied to many other urban management fields, such as urban disaster emergency response, crowd monitoring, and construction site monitoring. © 2023 Wuhan University.
