Abstract
The expansion of agricultural practices and the raising of animals are key contributors to air pollution. Cattle farms contain hazardous gases, so we developed a cattle farm air pollution analyzer to count the number of cattle and provide comprehensive statistics on different air pollutant concentrations based on severity over various time periods. The modeling was performed in two parts: the first stage focused on object detection using satellite data of farm images to identify and count the number of cattle; the second stage predicted the next hour air pollutant concentration of the seven cattle farm air pollutants considered. The output from the second stage was then visualized based on severity, and analytics were performed on the historical data. The visualization illustrates the relationship between cattle count and air pollutants, an important factor for analyzing the pollutant concentration trend. We proposed the models Detectron2, YOLOv4, RetinaNet, and YOLOv5 for the first stage, and LSTM (single/multi lag), CNN-LSTM, and Bi-LSTM for the second stage. YOLOv5 performed best in stage one with an average precision of 0.916 and recall of 0.912, with the average precision and recall for all models being above 0.87. For stage two, CNN-LSTM performed well with an MAE of 3.511 and an MAPE of 0.016, while a stacked model had an MAE of 5.010 and an MAPE of 0.023.
