CanopyOS: Open-Weight Vision for Outdoor Urban Greening Observations
Описание и применение
CanopyOS – это мобильный прототип, использующий открытый весовой сегментатор изображений для создания прозрачных отчётов о зелёных участках в городских ландшафтах. Он локально обрабатывает фотографии, вычисляет покрытие и «Green Score», а также предлагает осторожные рекомендации, не заменяя полевых измерений.
Задача
Can an open-weight vision model support a transparent first-pass observation of an outdoor scene while making the limits of that observation visible?
Результат
The prototype successfully generated traceable reports for two openly licensed photographs, demonstrating that local inference can produce a Green Score and recommendation without sending data to a hosted AI provider.
Рабочий процесс
- Take a photograph of an outdoor scene
- Upload or capture image in the app
- Run local inference with nvidia/segformer-b0-finetuned-ade-512-512
- Map ADE20K labels to vegetation, hard surfaces, buildings, and open ground
- Compute classified coverage and Green Score using the disclosed heuristic
- Display segmentation overlay, indicators, and recommendation in a report
- Store scan history privately and allow deletion
Доказательства
CanopyOS runs the pinned nvidia/segformer-b0-finetuned-ade-512-512 model locally after its weights are downloaded.
The report separately shows classified coverage, the fraction of the whole image represented by those four groups.
Green Score = round(100 × (0.60 × vegetation_fraction + 0.25 × open_ground_fraction + 0.15 × tree_presence))
The software validation record reports 30 passing Python unit/API tests and 12 passing Playwright desktop/mobile tests.
The next evaluation is to photograph multiple current outdoor locations with permission, manually review their masks and recommendations, and record failure cases.
