报告摘要：In this talk, we discuss a first milestone in measuring the floorspace of buildings for 40 major Chinese cities. The intent is to maximize city coverage and, eventually provide longitudinal data. We use a multi-task object segmenter approach to learn the building footprint and height in the same framework in parallel: (1) we determine the surface area is covered by any buildings (the square footage of occupied land); (2) we determine floorspace from multi-image representations of buildings from various angles to determine the height of buildings. We use Sentinel-1 and -2 satellite images as our main data source. We provide a detailed description of our data, algorithms, and evaluations. In addition, we analyze the quality of reference data and their role for measuring the building floorspace with minimal error. We conduct extensive quantitative and qualitative analyses with Shenzhen as a case study using our multi-task learner. Finally, we conduct correlation studies between our results (on both pixel and aggregated urban area levels) and nightlight data to gauge the merits of our approach in studying urban development.
