## Context & Data
The FLAIR #2 dataset is sampled countrywide and is composed of over 20 billion annotated pixels of very high resolution aerial imagery at 0.2 m spatial resolution, acquired over three years and different months (spatio-temporal domains). Aerial imagery patches consist of 5 channels (RVB-Near Infrared-Elevation) and have corresponding annotation (with 19 semantic classes or 13 for the baselines). Furthermore, to integrate broader spatial context and temporal information, high resolution Sentinel-2 1-year time series with 10 spectral band are also provided. More than 50,000 Sentinel-2 acquisitions with 10 m spatial resolution are available.
<br>
The dataset covers 50 spatial domains, encompassing 916 areas spanning 817 km². With 13 semantic classes (plus 6 not used in this challenge), this dataset provides a robust foundation for advancing land cover mapping techniques.<br><br>

## Usage
The `flair-2-config.yml` file controls paths, hyperparameters and computing ressources. The file `requirement.txt` is listing used libraries for the baselines.
To launch a training/inference/metrics computation, you can either use :
- ```
main.py --config_file=flair-2-config.yml
```
- use the `./notebook/flair-2-notebook.ipynb` notebook guiding you through data visualization, training and testing steps.
A toy dataset (reduced size) is available to check that your installation and the information in the configuration file are correct.
