Preparation

Install Python dependencies by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Data Collection

First, obtain Earth Engine authentication credentials by following the installation instructions.

Then, to collect and download a new SeCo dataset from a random set of Earth locations, run:

python datasets/seco_downloader.py \
  --save_path [folder where data will be downloaded] \
  --num_locations 200000

Unsupervised Pre-training

To do unsupervised pre-training of a ResNet-18 model on the SeCo dataset, run:

python main_pretrain.py \
  --data_dir datasets/seco_1m --data_mode seco \
  --base_encoder resnet18

Transferring to Downstream Tasks

With a pre-trained SeCo model, to train a supervised linear classifier on 10% of the BigEarthNet training set in a 4-GPU machine, run:

python main_bigearthnet.py \
  --gpus 4 --accelerator dp --batch_size 1024 \
  --data_dir datasets/bigearthnet --train_frac 0.1 \
  --backbone_type pretrain --ckpt_path checkpoints/seco_resnet18_1m.ckpt \
  --freeze_backbone --learning_rate 1e-3

To train a supervised linear classifier on EuroSAT from a pre-trained SeCo model, run:

python main_eurosat.py \
  --data_dir datasets/eurosat \
  --backbone_type pretrain --ckpt_path checkpoints/seco_resnet18_1m.ckpt

To train a supervised change detection model on OSCD from a pre-trained SeCo model, run:

python main_oscd.py \
  --data_dir datasets/oscd \
  --backbone_type pretrain --ckpt_path checkpoints/seco_resnet18_1m.ckpt
