| dc.description | This data contains the digital elevation models with 0.5 m resolution and polyline shapefiles with the location of channels from the 12 study areas used in this study. It also has the scripts to generate the datasets used to train the machine learning model to classify channels into ditches and streams, and calculate the hydrological indices. The code to train the model is also included, along with the models obtained. For the ground truth data, the channels were mapped differently based on their type: ditches were manually digitized based on the visual analysis of some topographic indices and orthophotos obtained from the DEM. Streams were mapped by initially detecting all natural channel heads, then tracing the downstream channels, and finally manually editing them based on orthophotos. We recommend using Docker to set the environment. | |
