Abstract
Accurate segmentation of river water in close-range Remote Sensing (RS) images is vital for efficient environmental monitoring and management. However, this task poses significant difficulties due to the dynamic nature of water, which exhibits varying colors and textures reflecting the sky and surrounding structures along the riverbanks. This study addresses these complexities by evaluating and comparing several well-known deep-learning (DL) techniques on four river scene datasets. To achieve this, we fine-tuned the recently introduced "Segment Anything Model" (SAM) along with popular DL segmentation models such as U-Net, DeepLabV3+, LinkNet, PSPNet, and PAN, all using ResNet50 pre-trained on ImageNet as a backbone. Experimental results highlight the diverse performances of these models in river water segmentation. Notably, fine-tuned SAM demonstrates superior performance, followed by U-Net(ResNet50), despite their higher computational costs. In contrast, PSPNet(ResNet50), while less effective, proves to be the most efficient in terms of execution time. In addition to these findings, we introduce a novel river water segmentation dataset, LuFI-RiverSnap.<italic>v</italic>1 (Dataset link), characterized by a more diverse range of scenes and accurate masks compared to existing datasets. To facilitate reproducible research in remote sensing and computer vision, we release the implementations of the fine-tuned SAM model (Code link). The findings from this research, coupled with the presented dataset and the accuracy achieved by fine-tuned SAM segmentation, can support tracking river changes, understanding river water level trends, and exploring river ecosystem dynamics. These can also provide valuable insights for practitioners and researchers seeking models tailored to specific image characteristics with practical means in disaster risk reduction, such as rapid assessments of inundations during floods or automatic extractions of gauge data in watersheds.
