Storage tank detection

An algorithm that detects oil storage tanks in SPOT imagery.

Overview

The algorithm uses object detection in SPOT display imagery to detect oil storage tanks. The result is a GeoJSON file with polygons drawn around detected oil storage tanks.

Storage tank detection can be used for oil industry monitoring, infrastructure management, and construction monitoring.
