Abstract
The frequent hazy weather in North China has drawn people's attention. The anthropogenic emission by fossil fuel power plants is one of the main pollution resource, so the environmental protection administration need to monitor power plants. Thus, a power plant detection system is needed to locate power plants and judge their working status. In this paper, we propose a power plant monitoring framework based on Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) to automatically detect the chimneys and condensing towers of the power plants and judge their working status in high resolution remote sensing images (RSIs). We improve the original FPN by changing the number of layers and scales of feature pyramid to get better performance. Experimental results show that our improved FPN framework can effectively detect the chimneys and condensing towers of fossil-fuel power plants and judge their working status with mean average precision up-to 0.8591, showing good potential for power plant monitoring.
