  • Explore different ways to solve your change detection challenges in Picterra Forge – from detecting subtle changes in objects movements or appearance, land patterns shifts to exploring comprehensive transformations across terrains.
  • Benefit from specialized change detection models, streamlined annotations and efficient algorithm training, as well as meticulous change analysis.
his image features the Picterra "Dataset Recommendation Report" interface, a beta tool designed to improve the performance of AI detectors like the "[dataset exploration] Tree Holes" model shown in the background. The modal window explains how the tool helps users understand data variability and patterns by generating automated recommendations for training. By analyzing imagery and existing annotations, the system identifies where the detector may need more representative data to improve its generalizability.
This image features the Picterra platform being used to train an AI model titled "Orig Seals," designed to detect seals along a rocky coastline. The satellite view shows several seals highlighted with bright green polygons against the white and grey rocks. The dashboard at the top indicates a training accuracy of 84.18% as of January 2024. On the right, a detailed "Annotation Areas" sidebar lists dozens of Accuracy Areas, showing individual success rates (ranging from 0% to 100%) for specific test zones. This interface demonstrates how the platform provides granular insights into model performance, allowing researchers to pinpoint where the AI excels or struggles in identifying wildlife in complex natural environments.
