DESCRIPTION

#hack4good Amsterdam 1st Place Winner The problem: the exact locations of (illegal) oil palm plantations are largely unknown. Our solution: Automatic Oil Palm Detection from Satellite Images In 48 hours we’ve build a working system that automatically detects oil palm plantations from satellite images. There will still be classification errors which will be fixed by a fun crowdsourcing app based on Google Maps where people can go over the maps and correct any remaining misclassifications.
