Transform Invasive Plant Detection
Eliminate time-consuming, labor-intensive processes! Now there’s a simple, fast, and automated way to identify phragmites—with no hiking through wetlands or manually drawing polygons in satellite imagery involved.
This machine learning model uses instance segmentation to analyze drone imagery and generate geo-referenced polygons of phragmites found.
Use Case
After site surveillance, run drone imagery through the model to easily identify phragmites. Model results can be fed into a sprayer drone for targeted treatment.
Benefits
This model will:
- Reduce the time spent looking for and treating invasive plants.
- Increase the precision of invasive plant species management.
- Help decrease the amount of funding needed for treatment of invasive plants.
- Reduce risks associated with using herbicides to control invasive plants.
