AI-Powered Road Network Detection from Satellite Imagery with Zero Manual Labelling

2026-04-21

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>We present a fully automated, zero-cost pipeline for fine-grained road segmentation from medium-resolution Sentinel-2 imagery, using all 12 spectral bands and binary supervision from OpenStreetMap (OSM). Unlike prior methods relying on high-resolution imagery or manual labels, our approach operates entirely on public data and requires no human annotation. A key contribution is the use o...
