ANE Site Placemarks for Google Earth
<p>ANE.kmz is a set of site placemarks for Google Earth of a selection of the most important archaeological sites in the Ancient Near East. ANE.kmz works with Google Earth Pro, which first has to be downloaded for free. When opened inside Google Earth Pro, ANE.kmz gives, to the left, an alphabetic list of ancient sites and, to the right, on the satellite images the same sites marked. For the moment, there are some 2500 sites with modern names; among them some 400 have ancient names. Additions of more sites are planned. Ancient names are written without parenthesis. Modern names are within parenthesis. Most sites have been identified on the satellite images.</p> <p>ANE Waters.kmz is an experimental set of provisional water placemarks for Google Earth covering Mesopotamia up to modern time.</p> <p>ANE Picture.jpg is just illustrating the appearence of ANE.kmz before zooming in and is not for use.</p>
Supervised land cover classification using Google Earth Engine in Córdoba, Argentina, 2018-2020
Land cover information is critical to scientific, economic, and public policy-making. There is a high demand for accurate and timely land cover information that affects the accuracy of all subsequent applications. The availability of Google Earth Engine (GEE), which derives temporal aggregation methods from time-series images (i.e., the use of metrics such as mean or median), has also enabled optimization of computation time, such as managing large amounts of data to obtain more accurate results. Our objective was to obtain a land cover map for the northwest of the province of Córdoba, Argentina. The study was carried out in rural communities that belong to the departments of Cruz del Eje and Ischilín, northwest of Córdoba, and have different degrees of intervention in the land cover. Sentinel 2 Level 2A images were acquired for the study area. Images available from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2020, were sampled. To create a thematic map, the median value was calculated for the sample of images from the selected time interval. Finally, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was calculated and added to the total bands of the median image. Training polygons were placed there considering the visual features in the median image. The Random Forest algorithm was used as the classification method. To verify the quality of the classified map, a list of 97,753 verification pixels was obtained. In addition, a confusion matrix was created to collect the conflicts that arise between categories, and the precision and kappa coefficient was calculated to define the quality of the map obtained. Image acquisition, preprocessing, and analysis were performed on the Google Earth Engine platform. Thematic maps with eight classes were obtained, with a total area of 719880 ha. The confusion matrix showed an overall precision of 99.26% and a corrected kappa index of 0.99, the classes were correctly classified by the algorithm.
