Automatic extraction of road intersection points from USGS historical map series using deep convolutional neural networks

Tagged image tiles as well as the Faster-RCNN framework for automatic extraction of road intersection points from USGS historical maps of the United States of America. The data and code have been prepared for the paper entitled "Automatic extraction of road intersection points from USGS historical map series using deep convolutional neural networks" submitted to "International Journal of Geographic Information Science". The image tiles have been tagged manually. The Faster RCNN framework (see https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.10012) was captured from:https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/detection_model_zoo.md
