Google Research developed a high-resolution deep learning framework to map fine-scale ecological features like hedgerows and copses, and released a vectorized dataset (Vectorized Farmscapes 2020) for the UK to support nature restoration and carbon accounting.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://research.google/blog/from-pixels-to-planning-earth-ai-for-nature-restoration/:

> Today, we’re releasing a vectorized dataset that transforms these maps into an actionable inventory of hedgerows, stone walls, and copses.
