A small land use classification

What is Machine Learning ? Can it classify urban area ?

Using a simple RF Model over Google Maps Imagery that have been scrapped, this repo aimed at showing intuitively the power of Machine Learning and limitation.

Limitations

The misclassification of certain areas is due to several factors, some are simple to imagine:

  • The model is too simplistic
  • There are too few images
  • The noise of images can be difficult to overcome

But some are really difficult with Machine Learning:

  • What is an urbanized area ?
  • Is a small park in a city an urbanized or non-urbanized area ?
