Google maps/OSM/Bing maps/etc. do not exist everywhere in the world. Especially for developing countries (that DeepGlobe datasets are collected from), we need automated and robust approaches for road extraction. For further info, the motivation is well-discussed in this paper: https://research.fb.com/publications/generative-street-addresses-from-satellite-imagery/
