Google DeepMind 与 World Resources Institute 发布全球森林地图 ForTy

Google Deepmind creates a global map of forests with satellite data and AI

Why we picked it

DeepMind 拿卫星数据做了张全球森林分类地图,能查毁林情况,不过种植林只能认出一半左右,精度还有限。

Google DeepMind 联合 World Resources Institute 推出 ForTy,利用卫星数据将全球土地划分为六类,包括原生林、人工林和经济林木。该地图可用于欧盟规则下的毁林追踪。但目前它只能识别约一半的种植林和经济林区域,人工林的识别率为 60%。

Google Deepmind creates a global map of forests with satellite data and AI

Google Deepmind and the World Resources Institute have released ForTy, a global map that classifies forests and other land into six categories, including primary forest, plantations, and tree crops. The map could help track deforestation under EU rules, but it identifies only about half of planted forests and tree-crop areas, and 60% of plantations.
