Although multiple summary reviews of deep learning in remote sensing have been conducted, the field currently lacks a comprehensive analysis of deep learning utilizing Landsat observations in single time pixel-based classification, both qualitatively and quantitatively. This study addresses this gap by conducting a systematic review based on 352 case studies extracted from 279 peer-reviewed articles that supported direct comparisons across deep learning and traditional classifiers. Qualitatively, our findings ar…

The gain

A systematic review and meta-analysis of 352 case studies from 279 peer-reviewed papers found deep neural networks improved Landsat pixel classification accuracy by about 5% when traditional classifiers scored 80%.

What this doesn’t fix

UNets need labels for large contiguous reference patches, and Transformers need more computing resources and memory, which limits where their accuracy gains can be applied; most studies also focused on single countries.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page

Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2717 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
