Developing land cover maps for barrier islands using satellite imagery
Low riskExact public inventory row
Description
The objective of this ML/AL use case was to map land cover on barrier islands using satellite imagery.
Detailed example
Prediction of land cover types based on signatures from training data (i.e., pixels with class labels).
AI / analytics pattern
Classical/Predictive Machine Learning: Models trained on data to make predictions or classifications based on identified patterns or relationships.
Automation level / stage
b) Pilot – The use case has been deployed in a limited test or pilot capacity.
Expected benefit
Prediction of land cover types based on signatures from training data (i.e., pixels with class labels).
Controls / human review
ATO: No; PIA: Not published
Data needed
Satellite imagery was used for the mapping process. Photointerpetation and existing land cover maps were used for the training and testing dataset development.
