Using high-resolution imagery and deep learning to classify land-use following deforestation: a case study in Ethiopia
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/125031
Abstract
National-scale assessments of post-deforestation land-use are crucial for decreasing deforestation and forest degradation-related emissions. In this research, we assess the potential of different satellite data modalities (single-date, multi-date, multi-resolution, and an ensemble of multi-sensor images) for classifying land-use following deforestation in Ethiopia using…
