Wetland mapping methods: proof of concept

This report summarises a proof of concept (POC), developed by Morphum Environmental and Lynker Analytics, intended to map and classify wetlands in New Zealand using commonly available earth observational data and machine learning techniques.

The pilot development conducted in Northland and Tasman revealed that further modelling is needed to move this work from POC to production use.

This research was commissioned by the Ministry to improve understanding of mapping at a scale needed to fulfill the NES/NPS-FM 2020 requirements.
