Wildfire Knowledge Graph · Remote Sensing & Mapping
Working definition
The difference between the mapped location of a remote-sensing detection and the true ground location of the observed feature.
In plain language
The difference between the mapped location of a remote-sensing detection and the true ground location of the observed feature.
Why it matters
Geolocation Error is useful because it separates one specific part of wildfire behaviour, exposure, operations or evidence from nearby concepts that can otherwise be mixed together.
