Automated ice-wedge polygon prediction

Caption

Progress of automated ice-wedge polygon prediction from sub-meter resolution commercial satellite imagery. So far, researchers have mapped more than 1 billion individual-ice wedge polygons across the Arctic tundra. In addition to polygon outline, each detected ice-wedge polygon comes with a suite of analysis-ready attributes, such as ice-wedge polygon type, size, length, and width.
