Abstract
Natural processes occurring on the surface of the earth manifest themselves at multiple spatial scales. The amount of spatial variability revealed from remote sensing images is strongly dependent on the scale of observation. Each remote sensing image is acquired at a given spatial resolution, revealing only a limited range of the existing natural variability. The simple method presented in this book was developed for the quantification of the loss of fine-scale spatial detail in low-resolution ocean color images acquired over highly patchy coastal waters. The method can however be used for the analysis of targets other than water as well as in other types of applications like the determination of the optimum scale of observation for a field sampling campaign, the design of the spatial aspects of a new sensor, study of scale-change effects in multi-scale/multi-sensor projects and possibly in many others. The current study was accomplished in 2000 for the fulfillment of a Masters of Science degree at the Remote Sensing department of Universite de Sherbrooke under the supervision of Dr. Norm O'Neill and Jean-Claude Therriault.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
