Marda Science

We are a tiny science consultancy. We consist of Dr Daniel Buscombe and Dr Maria Campbell. Our website is still under development but details some of the work that we do. This is the landing page for Dan's page of software repositories and datasets that concern projects in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Remote Sensing, Computer Vision, Image Processing, and Geospatial analysis. It gives a more complete picture. Dan often tweets about the status of various projects and how to use his software tools. Some teaching resources are hosted through our Gitlab repository.

Dan's other github handle is dbuscombe-usgs. He develop codes collaboratively and host them mostly in a range of Github organizations, listed below:

Active Software Projects

Doodleverse

Deep-learning based semantic segmentation of geospatial data.

In the past two years I led the development and now maintain a set of TensorFlow-based tools specifically designed for this task - from developing training data to creating deployment ready models. The set of tools is available on Github Doodleverse Org.. I have recently talkedabout these tools and how they are being applied in production.

That work has spawned the development of several downstream applications for specific tasks. For example, CoastSeg and Seg2Map described below

CoastSeg

An interactive interface to download satellite imagery using CoastSat from Google Earth Engine, extracting shorelines from satellite imagery, and applying segmentation models to satellite imagery A mapping extension for CoastSat using Segmentation Zoo models

In the past year I have overseen a small team developing satellite-image based shoreline mapping tools as we work towards a prospectus outlined in a recent paper.

Seg2Map

An interactive web map app for geospatial label imagery generated within the Doodleverse

Another generic toolbox for semantic segmentation of geospatial imagery is Seg2Map. Display the imagery on a web map, and apply segmentation models to create labels and maps

SediNet

Deep-learning based estimation of sediment grain size

Several of my model frameworks, including SediNet, combine to amass a citizen science database of beach sand measurements for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, called the SandSnap project. SediNet is software for application of deep convolutional neural networks to estimation of quantitative and qualitative properties of sediment in photographic imagery.

Other (older) software for automated analyses of grain size from images of sediment usign wavelets is also available and widely used, having amassed several hundred academic paper citations.

OWG

Deep-learning based estimation of nearshore ocean wave properties

I research methods to measure surf zone waves from satellite imagery by adapting a deep learning model framework I developed to larger scales.

Software for application of deep convolutional neural networks to estimation of ocean wave properties from time-series of imagery are available in the Github Optical Wave Gauging Org.

Ping-mapper

Sidescan sonar processing and analysis

I have been involved in sidescan sonar processing for a decade. I oversee a software project for reading, processing and analysis of Humminbird sidescan data, called [Ping-mapper]https://github.com/CameronBodine/PINGMapper/). It is based on older software I wrote for for reading, processing and analysis of Humminbird sidescan data. Source code available in Python/Cython here is now archived, having been succeeded by PING-Mapper.

RetinaDamage

Deep Learning for estimating damage to buildings due to natural disasters

This project trained a RetinaNet model to detect building damage in Maxar satellite imagery.

GobyNet

Deep-learning based detection of benthic fish

I have written software for automated detection of camouflaged benthic fish using models based on RetinaNet and deep residual U-Net. Source code currently available in Python (link soon).

RegionalGrainSizeModel

Machine Learning for estimating beach grain size over regional scales

This ongoing project uses boosted regression trees to estimate sand beach grain size over regional scales from a suite of covariates like beach slope, tide, and wave climate.

prism

Multibeam processing and analysis

Software for probabilistic seafloor habitat mapping using multibeam backscatter. Code here

PBR-filter

Novel {P}ansharpening by {B}ackground {R}emoval algorithm for sharpening RGB images. Code here

pysesa

Software for spatially explicit analyis of point clouds and spatially distributed data. Code (now archived) is here.

Teaching materials

I have taught several classes on Machine Learning and data science principles, including development and teaching of Machine Learning courses for my coworkers and the wider geoscience community.

ML-Mondays

Teaching materials and software for application of deep convolutional neural networks for analysis of photographic imagery. Supervised and semi-supervised deep learning models and data for image segmentation, and object detection. Source code currently available in Python on the ML-Mondays Github Org.
