What is DeepForest?
DeepForest is a python package for training and predicting ecological objects in airborne imagery. DeepForest currently comes with a tree crown object detection model and a bird detection model. Both are single class modules that can be extended to species classification based on new data. Users can extend these models by annotating and training custom models.

Documentation
DeepForest is documented on readthedocs
How does deepforest work?
DeepForest uses deep learning object detection networks to predict bounding boxes corresponding to individual trees in RGB imagery. DeepForest is built on the object detection module from the torchvision package and designed to make training models for detection simpler.
For more about the motivation behind DeepForest, see some recent talks we have given on computer vision for ecology and practical applications to machine learning in environmental monitoring.
Where can I get help, learn from others, and report bugs?
Given the enormous array of forest types and image acquisition environments, it is unlikely that your image will be perfectly predicted by a prebuilt model. Below are some tips and some general guidelines to improve predictions.
Get suggestions on how to improve a model by using the discussion board. Please be aware that only feature requests or bug reports should be posted on the issues page.
Developer Guidelines
We welcome pull requests for any issue or extension of the models. Please follow the developer's guide.

Why DeepForest?
Remote sensing can transform the speed, scale, and cost of biodiversity and forestry surveys. Data acquisition currently outpaces the ability to identify individual organisms in high-resolution imagery. Individual crown delineation has been a long-standing challenge in remote sensing, and available algorithms produce mixed results. DeepForest is the first open-source implementation of a deep learning model for crown detection. Deep learning has made enormous strides in a range of computer vision tasks but requires significant amounts of training data. By including a trained model, we hope to simplify the process of retraining deep learning models for a range of forests, sensors, and spatial resolutions.
Citation
Most usage of DeepForest should cite two papers.
The first is the DeepForest paper, which describes the package:
The second is the paper describing the model.

DeepForest is a python package for training and predicting individual tree crowns from airborne RGB imagery. DeepForest comes with a prebuilt model trained on data from the National Ecological Observation Network. Users can extend this model by annotating and training custom models starting from the prebuilt model. DeepForest es un paquete de python para la predicción de coronas de árboles individuales basada en modelos entrenados con imágenes remotas RVA ( RGB, por sus siglas en inglés). DeepForest viene con un modelo entrenado con datos proveídos por la Red Nacional de Observatorios Ecológicos (NEON, por sus siglas en inglés). Los usuarios pueden ampliar este modelo pre-construido por anotación de etiquetas y entrenamiento con datos locales. La documentación de DeepForest está escrita en inglés, sin embargo, agradeceríamos contribuciones con fin de hacerla accesible en otros idiomas.
