Abstract

Images by the satellites are useful for analysing and managing water bodies. Precise segmentation of water bodies by the images from the satellites can be used for various purposes, including flood management, environmental monitoring, balancing ecosystem and for civilization. Although the existing UNets data efficiency is quite limited because of its huge amount of annotated data for training, which is costly and time dwelling. Computational requirements and memory usage can be increased by its symmetric architecture. It may struggle with global context, producing boundary artifacts. It also faces challenges with class imbalance, which can lead to biased predictions. It also consumes a lot of time for training. So for this purpose an innovative and effective method of water body segmentation is essential that is ResNet50, a DCNN design well known for its effectiveness in image recognition tasks. This is the approach utilizes hierarchical features learned by ResNet50 to precisely identify water bodies, from the images by satellites, among complex backgrounds. By combining preprocessing techniques, data augmentation, and fine-tuning of the ResNet50 model, the semantic segmentation performance can be increased. This work presents a proposed solution for satellite image monitoring of the water body. To accomplish this objective, we have introduced the ResNet model, this is a semantic segmentation model of an image. This method has successfully got through a validation accuracy of 96.02 % for water segmentation with an error of 20.22%. Additionally, we conduct comparative analyses with existing techniques to demonstrate the lead of proposed approach. This paper presents a promising solution for automating water bodies segmentation in satellite imagery, thereby enabling us to efficiently monitor and management of water resources on a large scale.
