| contents | Discussions of minimum parking requirement policies often include maps of parking lots, which are time consuming to construct manually. Open source datasets for such parking lots are scarce, particularly for US cities. This paper introduces the idea of using Near-Infrared (NIR) channels as input and several post-processing techniques to improve the prediction of off-street surface parking lots using satellite imagery. We constructed two datasets with 12,617 image-mask pairs each: one with 3-channel (RGB) and another with 4-channel (RGB + NIR). The datasets were used to train five deep learning models (OneFormer, Mask2Former, SegFormer, DeepLabV3, and FCN) for semantic segmentation, classifying images to differentiate between parking and non-parking pixels. Our results demonstrate that the NIR channel improved accuracy because parking lots are often surrounded by grass, even though the NIR channel needed to be upsampled from a lower resolution. Post-processing including eliminating erroneous holes, simplifying edges, and removing road and building footprints further improved the accuracy. Best model, OneFormer trained on 4-channel input and paired with post-processing techniques achieves a mean Intersection over Union (mIoU) of 84.9 percent and a pixel-wise accuracy of 96.3 percent. |
