rTLsDeep: An R Package for post-hurricane damage severity classification at the individual tree level using terrestrial laser scanning and deep learning.

Authors: Carine Klauberg, Carlos Alberto Silva, Ricardo Dalagnol, Matheus Ferreira, Danilo Romeu Farias de Souza, Luiz Guilherme Almeida Nogueira, Eben Broadbent, Caio Hamamura and Jason Vogel.

The rTLSDeep package provides options for i) rotating and deriving 2D images from TLS 3D point clouds, ii) calibrating and validating convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures and iii) predicting post-hurricane damage severity at the individual tree level

Post-hurricane individual tree-level damage classification using deep learning

Selecting deep learning model properties

# Exporting 2D grids
## Creating train/test datasets for C1 and C2 only
classes = c('C1', 'C2')
targets = c('train', 'validation')

### Create folders
folders_to_create = file.path(targets, rep(classes, each=length(targets)))
sapply(folders_to_create, dir.create, recursive=T, showWarnings=FALSE)

### Calculate rotations by 15 degrees
rotations = c(seq(0, 89, 15), seq(180, 269, 15))
n_images = length(rotations) * 2 # We will use xz and yz from TLS

### Get random training samples
indices = seq_len(n_images)
val_samples = sample(indices, size=n_images * 0.25)

### Image parameters
img_width = 256
img_height = 256
resolution = 0.05
max_height = 30

createImage = function(raster, file_path, width, height) {
    png(paste0(file_path, '.png'), units="px", width=img_width, height=img_height)
    par(mar=c(0,0,0,0))
    terra::image(raster, col=viridis::viridis(100), axes=FALSE, ylim=c(-resolution,max_height-resolution))
    dev.off()
}

ii = 1
func = ~list(Z = max(Z)) # plot by height

## Create images rotating images
for (rotation in rotations) {
    train_or_vals = targets[(c(ii, ii+1) %in% val_samples) + 1]

    for (current_class in classes) {
        tree = tlsrotate3d(get(paste0('tree_', tolower(current_class))), theta=rotation, by="z", scale=TRUE)

        raster = getTLS2D(tree, res=resolution, by="xz", func = func, scale=TRUE)
        createImage(raster, file.path(train_or_vals[1], current_class, ii), width, height)

        raster = getTLS2D(tree, res=resolution, by="yz", func = func, scale=TRUE)

Finding the best rotation

# Find the best angle and perform rotation
(best_angle_c2 = get_best_angle(tree_c2))
rotated_c2 = tlsrotate3d(tree_c2, theta = best_angle_c2)

# computing 2D grid snapshot
gtree_rotated_c2<-getTLS2D(rotated_c2, res=0.05, by="xz", func = func, scale=TRUE)

# Visualizing 2D grid snapshot
par(mfrow=c(1,2))
plot(gtree_c2, col=viridis::viridis(100),axes=FALSE, legend=FALSE, xlab="",ylab="", ylim=c(0,30), main="C2",cex=2)
plot(gtree_rotated_c2, col=viridis::viridis(100),axes=FALSE, legend=FALSE, xlab="",ylab="", ylim=c(0,30), main=gettextf("C2 (best %s°)", round(best_angle_c2,0)),cex=2)
