Remote sensing of particulate and filter passing mercury species: models and proxies

Low riskExact public inventory row

Description

AI provides the framework for understanding the relationship between optical water quality parameters and non-optical contaminants to develop highly accurate remote sensing models for mercury from satellite images and field measurements

Detailed example

A model that is applied to remote sensing imagery to provide a measurement of mercury and meythlmercury in water bodies

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

a) Pre-deployment – The use case is in a development or acquisition status.

Expected benefit

Synoptic, spatially cohesive maps of mercury distribution in surface water

Controls / human review
