Project overview
Les zones construites jouent un rôle essentiel dans la plupart des changements environnementaux et sociétaux sur la terre ; cependant, il est difficile d’avoir une estimation fiable de leur étendue ou empreinte au sol. À cette fin, le Centre Spatial Allemand (DLR) a produit récemment l'empreinte mondiale des zones habitées pour l’année 2019 (WSF2019) à une résolution spatiale de 10 m. Cette couche a notamment été obtenue en utilisant une nouvelle approche basée sur l'intelligence artificielle qui exploite conjointement les images radar et optiques de masse librement disponibles collectées par les satellites Sentinel-1 et Sentinel-2 de l’Agence Spatiale Européenne (ESA).\n\n BREAK
En utilisant MapSwipe, vous pouvez aider à confirmer la présence de bâtiments à des endroits spécifiques, ce qui permettra d’améliorer la qualité du produit WSF2019. Cette couche d’information sera utilisée dans de nombreuses applications dont la gestion des risques de catastrophe.

Aggregated Results
Aggregated Results. This gives you the unfiltered MapSwipe results aggregated on the task level. This is most suited if you want to apply some custom data processing with the MapSwipe data, e.g. select only specific tasks. Check our documentation for more details. (Note that you need to unzip this .gz file before you can use it.)
