Classifying Economic Areas for Urban Planning using Deep Learning and Satellite Imagery in East Africa
In this research we use data from a number of different sources of satellite imagery. Below we describe and visualize various metrics of the datasets being considered. Satellite imagery is retrieved from Google earth which is supported by Data SIO (Scripps Institution of Oceanography), NOAA (Nationa...
