DeepMind maps the world's forest types at 10-meter resolution
Google DeepMind · rss · 2026-10-22
Google DeepMind unveiled a global map that classifies every 10-meter patch of land on Earth into distinct forest types. Going beyond simple tree-cover metrics, the map captures which kind of forest exists where, offering a finer-grained foundation for ecological monitoring, carbon accounting, and biodiversity research.
