Offshore wind (OSW) technology has recently been included in California’s plans to achieve 100% carbon-free electricity by 2045.

The rapid expansion of offshore wind energy requires effective monitoring to balance renewable development with environmental and marine spatial planning. This study proposes a novel farm detection methodology integrating Sentinel-1 SAR time series, time-shift augmentation strategy, semantic-to-instance segmentation transformation. consists (1) constructing dataset farms labeled from (2) applying strategy by randomizing image sequences during training (avoiding overfitting due chronological ordering), (3) evaluating six deep learning architectures (U-Net, U-Net++, LinkNet, DeepLabv3+, FPN, SegFormer) across time-series lengths 1, 5, 10, 15 images, (4) converting the semantic results into instance-level detections using Geographic Information System tools. show that increasing length 1 images significantly improves performance, Intersection over Union 63.29% 81.65% F-score 77.52% 89.90%, best model (LinkNet). Also, models trained achieved 25% higher IoU an 18% than those without it. transformation 99.7% overall quality in per-object evaluation, highlighting effectiveness our approach.
