Artificial Intelligence Mangrove Monitoring System Based on Deep Learning and Sentinel-2 Satellite Data in the UAE (2017-2024)
arXiv · · Significant research
Summary
A new study uses the UNet++ deep learning model and Sentinel-2 satellite data to monitor mangrove dynamics in the UAE from 2017 to 2024. The model achieved a mean Intersection over Union (mIoU) of 87.8% on the validation set. Results indicate a significant increase in mangrove area, primarily in Abu Dhabi, contributing to enhanced carbon sequestration across the UAE.
