Continuous technological growth and the corresponding environmental implications are triggering the enhancement of advanced environmental monitoring solutions, such as remote sensing. In this paper, we propose a new method for the spatial point patterns generation by classifying remote sensing images using convolutional neural network. To increase the accuracy, the training samples are extended by the suggested data augmentation scheme based on the similarities of images within the same part of the landscape for a limited observation time. The image patches are classified in accordance with the labels of previously classified images of the manually prepared training and test samples. This approach has improved the accuracy of image classification by 7% compared to current best practices of data augmentation. A set of image patch centers of a particular class is considered as a random point configuration, while the class labels are used as marks for every point. A marked point pattern is regarded as a combination of several subpoint patterns with the same qualitative marks. We analyze the bivariate point pattern to identify the relationships between points of different types using the features of a marked random point pattern.
