- How to bulk download hirise data
-No bulk DTM download option
-746 DTMs total
- https://www.uahirise.org/hiwish/maps/dtms.jsp
- Outline code for clipping
-Adding dimensionality to CNNs
- This is problematic on its own - computationally demanding and effectively mutes data weights
- Solution - identify and combine highly correlated variables
-Contact KB about RDC
- Update goals
- outline code for sed cover
- Develop training dataset of pure classes
- clip sections of homogenous classes (sediment, outcrop, ocean)
- push heterogeneous RGB data through segmentation module
-https://towardsdatascience.com/image-segmentation-using-pythons-scikit-image-module-533a61ecc980
- calculate percent sed cover from segmentation output
- Use percent cover as training dataset
- instead of a segmentation module, run through a standard classification
- We have options here all built into scikit learn - one option is SVM for a simple but robust analysis
-https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/svm.html
-Apollo Status
