Data Files

We have used the following dataset in our analysis:

1. Sentinel-2 Water Edges Dataset (SWED) from UK Hydrographic Office.

The data is available under the Geospatial Commission Data Exploration license.

Code Files

You can find the following files in the src folder:

• SWED_exploration.ipynb Initial analysis of SWED dataset with a focus on data quality
• edge_detection.ipynb Results of Canny, Sobel, Scharr and Prewitt edge detection algorithms applied to SWED. This file contains the code for all the figures in the conference paper.
