This tutorial details a GeoAI workflow for extracting building footprints from aerial imagery using a combination of deep learning models. It covers setting up the geospatial environment, training a U-Net model with a ResNet-34 encoder, and performing inference. The process also includes converting segmentation masks to polygons, evaluating performance metrics, and exploring zero-shot segmentation with Grounding DINO and SAM, as well as comparing results with a pre-trained Mask R-CNN model.
