Short description:

This book highlights and explains the details of machine learning models used in geospatial data analysis. It demonstrates the need for a data-centric explainable machine learning approach for obtaining new insights from geospatial data analysis and how they are applied to solve various environmental problems from forestry to climate change.

Long description:

Explainable machine learning (XML), a subfield of AI, is focused on making complex AI models understandable to humans. This book highlights and explains the details of machine learning models used in geospatial data analysis. It demonstrates the need for a data-centric, explainable machine learning approach to obtain new insights from geospatial data. It presents the opportunities, challenges, and gaps in the machine and deep learning approaches for geospatial data analysis and how they are applied to solve various environmental problems in land cover changes and in modeling forest canopy height and aboveground biomass density. The author also includes guidelines and code scripts (R, Python) valuable for practical readers.


 Features



  • Data-centric explainable machine learning (ML) approaches for geospatial data analysis.

  • The foundations and approaches to explainable ML and deep learning.

  • Several case studies from urban land cover and forestry where existing explainable machine learning methods are applied.

  • Descriptions of the opportunities, challenges, and gaps in data-centric explainable ML approaches for geospatial data analysis.
