Machine learning supports Esri 10-Meter Land Cover

[BernSzukalski]

Esri has released a new global land cover map using 10-meter resolution Sentinel-2 imagery, developed by Impact Observatory in partnership with Microsoft. The Esri 2020 Land Cover map, available in Living Atlas, will improve understanding of important topics such as food security, land use planning, hydrology modeling, and resource management planning.

Esri and Impact Observatory will be able to update this map annually using an advanced machine learning model.
