[OSM-talk] Building Detection using Machine Learning

[john whelan]

Do we have any guidelines in the wiki etc?

I'm not intending doing any but the topic has come up once or twice and has
currently been raised in the HOT mailing list.

I'm almost certain that as the accuracy improves so the topic will come up
again and we should at least have some guidelines in the wiki about it if
they aren't already there.

Thoughts?

Thanks

the algorithm on the first six unstarted tasks from the project. Potential
buildings are marked with green rectangles:
