Stoked to have contributed to this work along with @trevorcaughlin.bsky.social led by @pyroscientist.bsky.social! She demonstrates how to integrate data sources to make maps that identify various built infrastructure types and improve upon existing datasets spatially, temporally, and thematically.

I am excited to share our new paper on mapping built infrastructure using remote sensing data integration and open-source cloud computing. doi.org/10.1016/j.rs...
