Description:
Longitudinal, detailed data on the states of landscapes and human activities at the continental scale are essential to answering critical social and environmental science questions. However, for the periods before the 1970s, such data exist only on printed map sheets. They were created, for example, by the US Geological Survey (USGS), which produced over 178,000 topographic map sheets between 1884 and 2006. Recently, many of these maps have been scanned and are available publicly. As the best continuous, pre-satellite imagery, these maps have exceptional scientific, cultural, and societal value because they hold high-resolution data collected and mapped at high (and well-documented) accuracy standards. This session aims to showcase methodological and system advances in GeoAI for processing scanned maps for transforming them into spatiotemporal data collections.
