Materials Classification via Street View data
Workflow
-
- Ingest Freedom of Information (FOI) requests from UK local authorities on locations of non traditional builds
-
- Process FOI to create clean address -> non trad mapping
-
- Geo code addresses in Google
-
- Download Street view imagery (SVI) for addresses from geocode
-
- Use InceptionV3 trained on Places365 data to filter facades only from SVI
-
- Train DCNN on facades to identify building materials
