Dear John, the question isn't about imports. Seems guys are preparing dataset to train and test models and they need to download data that's been already validated within Missing Maps, as a "ground truth". Is there a way to get the precise coordinates of the areas where this job is done or projected to be done? Me too was asking if it makes sense to apply algorithm to detect damaged buildings on imagery to leverage the mapping speed in disaster affected areas?
