In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on a symmetric fully convolutional network within pyramid pooling (FCN-PP) for landslide mapping (LM). The proposed approach has three advantages. Firstly, this approach is automatic and insensitive to noise because multivariate morphological reconstruction (MMR) is used for image preprocessing. Secondly, it is able to take into account features from multiple convolutional layers and explore efficiently the context of images, which leads to a good tradeoff between wider receptive field and the use of context. Finally, the selected pyramid pooling module addresses the drawback of global pooling employed by convolutional neural network (CNN), fully convolutional network (FCN), U-Net, etc. Experimental results show that the proposed FCN-PP is effective for LM, and it outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in terms of four metrics, P recision, Recall, F-score, and Accuracy.
