Although convolutional neural networks have been proven to be an effective tool to generate high quality maps from remote sensing images, their performance significantly deteriorates when there exists a large domain shift between training and test data. To address this issue, we propose a new data augmentation approach that transfers the style of test data to training data using generative adversarial networks. Our semantic segmentation framework consists in first training a U-net from the real training data and then fine-tuning it on the test stylized fake training data generated by the proposed approach. Our experimental results prove that our framework outperforms the existing domain adaptation methods.
