Skyline scenes are a scientific matter of interest for some geographers and urbanists. These scenes have not been well-handled in computer vision tasks. Understanding the context of a skyline scene could refer to approaches based on hand-crafted features combined with linear classifiers; which are somewhat side-lined in favor of the Convolutional Neural Networks based approaches. In this paper, we proposed a new CNN learning approach to categorize skyline scenes. The proposed model requires a pre-processing step enhancing the deep-learned features and the training time. To evaluate our suggested system; we constructed the SKYLINEScene database. This new DB contains 2000 images of urban and rural landscape scenes with a skyline view. In order to examine the performance of our Sky-CNN system, many fair comparisons were carried out using well-known CNN architectures and the SKYLINEScene DB for tests. Our approach shows it robustness in Skyline context understanding and outperforms the hand-crafted approaches based on global and local features.
