Abstract
In this work, we compare the detection accuracy and speed of several state-of-the-art models for the task of detecting oil and gas fracking wells and small cars in commercial electrooptical satellite imagery. Several models are studied from the single-stage, two-stage, and multi-stage object detection families of techniques. For the detection of fracking well pads (50m- 250m), we find single-stage detectors provide superior prediction speed while also matching detection performance of their two and multi-stage counterparts. However, for detecting small cars, two-stage and multi-stage models provide substantially higher accuracies at the cost of some speed. We also measure timing results of the sliding window object detection algorithm to provide a baseline for comparison. Some of these models have been incorporated into the Lockheed Martin Globally-Scalable Automated Target Recognition (GATR) framework.
