Identifying global dust and smoke over ocean using MODIS sensor
Low riskExact public inventory row
Description
Using ML RF/CNN to detect dust in MODIS images.
Detailed example
pixel level dust, smoke identifications and probabilities
AI / analytics pattern
Computer Vision: AI that processes and interprets visual data (e.g., images and videos).
Automation level / stage
a) Pre-deployment – The use case is in a development or acquisition status.
Expected benefit
Improving the dust detection than traditional physics based dust/smoke detection to provide prior knowledge for downstream retrievals and can be used for aerosol related research and public health studies.
