<u>August 2022 - Present</u>
<ul>
<li>
Developed computer vision model in Python to identify hazardous parcels from roadside imagery,
aiding evacuation planning and vegetation management in wildfire-prone areas of Northern California.<br><br>
<img src="images/DCR/parcels_example_2.png" alt="parcel classification example" width="50%">
<p><small>
<ul>
<li>Photos are collected automatically from cameras mounted to the side of a car.</li>
<li>Each photo is automatically classified into a category using PyTorch.</li>
<li>Photos are assigned to parcels using geotag data.</li>
<li>Distribution of classifications are used to plan for vegetation management
and outreach to prepare for wildfire.</li>
</ul>
</small></p>
</li><br>
<li>
Built an AWS-based workflow to access USGS LiDAR data and generate raster inputs for wildfire model.<br><br>

</li><br>
<li>
Developed a convolutional neural network in Python to map aerial imagery (PyTorch, Raster Vision, Faster R-CNN).<br><br>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Implemented gray pine classifier. Gray pines are often an indicator of fire hazard in the California Central-Valley Foothills, thus deserving focus.</p>
