For the model to recognize what it's tasked with finding, you need to define images of palm trees so that it can identify similar pixels and tree sizes. Once you have the imagery, you'll create training samples and convert them to a format that can be used by a deep learning model. The first step is to find imagery that shows Kolovai, Tonga, and has a fine enough spatial and spectral resolution to identify trees. To simplify the process, you'll use a deep learning model in ArcGIS Pro to identify trees, then calculate their health based on a measure of vegetation greenness. Inventorying and assessing the health of each palm tree on the Kolovai, Tonga, plantation would take a lot of time and a large workforce.
