This website exists to support beginners and experts in applying deep learning to satellite and aerial imagery. The content here includes a monthly newsletter, YouTube videos & audio podcasts, resources on Github and Medium, groups on LinkedIn & X/Twitter, and a Discord chat server. This material is produced by Robin Cole and Mikolaj Czerkawski because we are passionate about this topic and believe in the collective benefit of knowledge sharing.
Become a sponsor 🚀
If you want to boost your business or service's exposure, consider sponsoring an edition of the monthly satellite-image-deep-learning newsletter. Sponsors get a mention in the opening statement and a dedicated section in the newsletter, which reaches over 10k email inboxes. Check out editions #18 and #9 for sponsorship examples. For sponsorship details, please email Robin 📧 Your consideration is greatly appreciated!
YouTube
The YouTube channel features both technically focussed discussions as well as general career guidance:
Github
Github hosts resources covering both techniques for deep learning with satellite imagery, and a long list of datasets and other resources. Note that you can also sponsor these repositories, gaining direct access to developers on Github
LinkedIn and X/Twitter groups
Robin regularly posts new discoveries and updates on both platforms:
Discord
You can connect with likeminded people in this community on the satellite-image-deep-learning Discord server. Discord is similar to Slack, free to join, and has dedicated channels for topics including for technical chat, jobseekers and job posts.
