Open source canopy classification
[osmith]Introduce your project
About
This project is parallel research to the GFC canopy assessment by Owen Smith for Dr. Cho's GISC 4903 - Special Topics in GIS . It's focus is on creating an open source supervised classification system designed specifically to be an efficient canopy/forest classification python module built on Scikit-learn, GDAL, and NumPy and utilizing NAIP imagery.
The hope is to create an alternative to proprietary classification systems (i.e. Textron) to be used for ongoing research into canopy change and the data creation that is needed for it.

The source code for the project can be viewed in the Canopy FOSS GitHub repository
