Validation of Isoscapes

Last Updated: 2023-09-27

Overview

Colab: https://colab.research.google.com/github/tnc-br/ddf-isoscapes/blob/typo/validation_pipeline.ipynb

The validation pipeline provides a side-by-side comparison of a generated TimberID isoscape with a baseline (typically external from USP, but not necessarily). Additionally, the validation pipeline runs a series of evaluations, including traditional regression metrics like RMSE and end-to-end metrics that measure TimberID's fraud detection capability under the isoscape like AUC-PR and Recall@Precision=0.95.

After validation, isoscape files are stamped with validation results and then written to the path raster.RASTER_BASE + "/" + ISOSCAPE_OXYGEN_VARS_FILENAME.

Notes

  • The current default isoscapes for the validation pipeline are not our best model. We will update this documentation when we have fully validated results.

  • Do not use the "Upload to Google Earth Engine" section of this notebook-- it is deprecated and not guaranteed to work properly. Instead, prefer to upload isoscapes to TimberID from the interactive Colab referenced in Earth Engine API.
