Detection transformer-based approach for mapping trees outside forests on high resolution satellite imagery

High-resolution satellite imagery is a crucial data source for comprehensive trees outside forests (TOF) mapping at various spatial scales. Accurate identification of individual trees in satellite imagery remains challenging due to the heterogeneous nature of tree crowns, spectral similarities with...
