# OTBTF: Orfeo ToolBox meets TensorFlow

OTBTF is a remote module of the [Orfeo ToolBox](https://www.orfeo-toolbox.org). It provides a generic, multi-purpose deep learning framework, targeting remote sensing images processing. It contains a set of process objects for OTB that internally invoke [Tensorflow](https://www.tensorflow.org/), and new OTB applications to perform deep learning with real-world remote sensing images. Applications can be used to build OTB pipelines from Python or C++ APIs. OTBTF also includes a python API to build quickly Keras compliant models suited for remote sensing imagery, easy to train in distributed environments. ## Documentation The [documentation](https://otbtf.readthedocs.io) is available on *readthedocs* as well as a [comprehensive tutorial](https://otb-keras-tutorial.readthedocs.io). ## Use You can use our latest GPU enabled docker images. ```bash docker run --gpus=all -ti mdl4eo/otbtf:latest-gpu otbcli_PatchesExtraction docker run --gpus=all -ti mdl4eo/otbtf:latest-gpu python -c "import otbtf" ``` You can also build OTBTF from sources (see the documentation) ## Cite ``` @article{cresson2018framework, title={A framework for remote sensing images processing using deep learning techniques}, author={Cresson, R{\'e}mi}, journal={IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters}, volume={16}, number={1}, pages={25--29}, year={2018}, publisher={IEEE} } ```
