NEON NIST data science evaluation challenge: Methods and results of team Shawn
Keyword(s):
This paper describes the methods used in the submission for team Shawn for the data science competition “Airborne Remote Sensing to Ecological Information”. I used canopy height rasters as well as NDVI rasters of the study area. I first filtered out pixels using a minimum NDVI threshold, then derived individual tree crowns using a watershed algorithm. I imposed limits on tree crown size and number using a minimum distance between two crowns and a maximum crown radius. All parameters were derived by minimizing the Jaccard coefficient. The final Jaccard coefficient on the training data was 0.117. All methods were implemented in Python are are available in code repositories.
