Artificial intelligence helps to find drainage ditches. It is fast and accurate.
There are many ditches in Estonia. Ditches help to drain water. If the ditches do not work, fields and trees deteriorate.
Ditches change the environment. Ditches increase greenhouse gases. It is necessary to know where the ditches are.
In the past, ditches were made manually. It is slow. Artificial intelligence does it faster.
Artificial intelligence uses elevation models. It finds ditches under vegetation. The University of Tartu used this model.
The model was trained with Swedish data. Then Estonian data was used. The data was from forests, fields, and peatlands.
Artificial intelligence found many new ditches. A total of 45,000 kilometers. The model was accurate on peatlands. It was less accurate in forests because trees interfere.
Artificial intelligence is useful. It finds ditches quickly. It helps to understand the environment.
