@ben_weinstein @dronecoria Yes, I have orthomosaics with new trees. How I send to you?
English

@dronecoria We are working on an open machine learning benchmark dataset for tree detection. Do you have orthomosaics we can annotate for newly planted trees? milliontrees.idtrees.org

@aeracoop @dronecoria Check out milliontrees.org and the repo here github.com/weecology/Mill…, sorry my notifications were turned off!

@_LXAI I'm brainstorming ways to fund a machine learning workshop for environment monitoring in either Medellin, CO or Cuenca, EC. Ideas on partners to engage? #DeepForest #AI4good

@jeff_weinstein I think the key sentence for me, "We appreciate your understanding on this as this has never happened before" timeanddate.com/eclipse/list-t…

Can anyone explain the rules for buying @FCNordsjaelland tickets (for September 16th). Website just says, "for people who have previously purchased". Is there no public ticket sale online?

Tree Detection arcg.is/0yLem5 @LivingAtlas @ArcGISDevs does anyone have information about this? I am the developer of the prior tool. This was the first i've heard of it.

ArcGIS has adopted deepforest as a pretrained tree detection model! esri.com/arcgis-blog/pr…

@shiorisagawa Interesting! Why the connection between data augmentation and unsupervised learning? Working on airborne HSI tree classification. Poor generalization across space/time. Hoping to use massive unlabeled sets (millions of samples). Not worth it? idtrees.org

We’ll be presenting WILDS v2.0 as an oral at ICLR! We extended the WILDS benchmark of real-world shifts by adding unlabeled data, which can be used for domain adaptation and representation learning.

Automated bird detector paper accepted at @ESAApplications. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Lots of great drone work going on for ecological monitoring. Here is a shot from our #drones4good everglades monitoring from this week. youtu.be/oigOURRXTWo

@weecology field season is underway with everglades bird surveys and testing out our @Wingtra. #dronesforgood

Countdown to #EarthDay with some #dronesforgood fun. Spot the field researchers amongst hundreds of nesting everglades birds.

Does google have an object detection API for street view? Why not? @TimSwast. What if I wanted to find all predicted utility poles in Portland for weak labeling.

Beautiful new video from our great field team for our AI monitoring project of south florida wading birds. Releasing our bird detection model sometime this spring.

@HamedAlemo looking forward to your talk on GAN for satellite data synthesis. I'm brainstorming HSI augmentation strategies for my tree classification work, is there a paper I can look at? Super imbalanced data, oversampling not doing it.
