Machine learning can be used to improve the availability and quality of ICT infrastructure data by detecting telecommunication towers from satellite imagery.
The Satellite Imagery Tower Detection application is a proof-of-concept collaboration between ITU-BDT under the BDT Future Network and Spectrum Management (FNS) division and Project 9GLO23134. This tool uses machine learning and satellite imagery to automatically detect telecommunication towers around a given location, supporting ICT infrastructure research for development.
