  • model_ckpts: contains all models trained during the analysis including the final model used to create the land use/cover maps (unet++_resnet50_focal_walpha_0.0_aug_no_color_jitter)
  • outputs: includes detailed performance metrics for trained models and key analysis outputs/statistics
  • data/raw: contains the input data needed for replication of the analysis

Please refer to the corresponding code repository https://github.com/pbarthelme/historical-topo-maps-laos-vietnam for instructions on how to replicate the results including details on download locations for external input data used in the analysis.

Note: The georeferenced map sheets are currently only available on request until details on the limited distribution restrictions of the source files are clarified.
