Description

Data products derived from high resolution RGB camera images. Drone images taken to detect litter on the riverbank.

more

Orthomosaic of 1944 high resolution RGB images taken with the Zenmuse P1 at the Galgeschoor site in the port of Antwerp along a bend in the river Scheldt.

Raster dataset representing the bare-earth elevation of the terrain, excluding all above-ground features (e.g., buildings, tree canopies, and other artifacts).

Normalised Digital Surface Model (nDSM). Raster data representing the height of above-ground objects (HAG) derived by subtracting the Digital Terrain Model (DTM) from the Digital Surface Model (DSM). Used primarily as a proxy for vegetation height.

Computer vision model predictions for the Galgeschoor site RGB orthomosaic. File lists detected objects with their bounding box coordinates (longitude/lateral), pixel dimensions, confidence score, class ID, and average RGB pixel values.
