Description
The SPOTTED project addresses the critical issue of marine debris, particularly plastic pollution, by enhancing detection and monitoring capabilities. Utilizing advanced spatio-temporal fusion (STF) techniques and Artificial Intelligence (AI) with high-resolution satellite imagery from Sentinel-2 (S2) and PlanetScope (PS), the project aims to refine S2 data and develop AI algorithms for identifying landfills and floating debris. Key findings demonstrate improved accuracy in detecting smaller debris, offering significant potential for better management and cleanup efforts in marine environments.
