Identifying and delineating the boundaries of croplands is a critical starting point for achieving greater sustainability in the agriculture and food sectors. Yet it is a resource-intensive task, compounding challenges like achieving end-to-end commodity traceability and compliance with regulations like the European Union’s Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).

Join us for a webinar on October 2 where we will showcase how Land & Carbon Lab and WRI are harnessing the power of AI to create an open-source toolkit for accurate crop field boundary detection, starting with an AI model that automatically delineates boundaries in South America. This work is being carried out in partnership with Arizona State University and is supported by the Walmart Foundation.

Learn more about this new AI model and see how the model performance was improved through early testing and field validation. We will also share how you can leverage our work and collaborate with us to finetune the model for a wide variety of field types and hyperlocal conditions while minimizing the cost of new model development and deployment.
