blanchon/PatternNet

PatternNet is a large‑scale high‑resolution remote sensing dataset for scene classification and image retrieval. It contains 38 classes, each with 800 images of size 256×256 pixels, totaling 30,400 images. The images are sourced from Google Earth or Google Map API, covering various land‑cover types such as airplanes, baseball fields, basketball courts, beaches, bridges, etc. The image resolution is 256 × 256 m with three RGB bands.
