Description
Summary:Satellite image analysis is a critical component of Earth observation and satellite data analysis, providing detailed information on the effects of global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Cloud computing offers a flexible way to allocate resources and simplifies the management of infrastructure. In this study, we propose a cross-cloud system for ML-based satellite image detection, focusing on the financial and performance aspects of utilizing Amazon Web Service (AWS) Lambda and Amazon SageMaker for advanced machine learning tasks. Our system utilizes Google Apps Script (GAS) to create a web-based control panel, providing users with access to our AWS-hosted satellite detection models. Additionally, we utilize AWS to manage expenses through a strategic combination of Google Cloud and AWS, providing not only economic advantages, but also enhanced resilience. Furthermore, our approach capitalizes on the synergistic capabilities of AWS and Google Cloud to fortify our defenses against data loss and ensure operational resilience. Our goal is to demonstrate the effectiveness of a cloud environment in addressing complex and interdisciplinary challenges, particularly in the field of object analysis using spatial imagery.
