متن کاملGround Truth
The concept of ground truth is a well-established principle in cartography, where data collected at a distance are confirmed by measurements made on location. Those local measurements are used to calibrate remote sensing devices, verify or correct experimental inferences, and update geographic databases. Ground truth observations also provide a means of training and supervising image classifica...
متن کاملSummary of information relating to impacts of sea lice from fish farms on Scottish sea trout and salmon
