# Simta Rice Mapping Classification

This dataset provides real SAR satellite imagery of rice fields collected across the Arkansas River Basin, Sacramento Valley, and Suihua regions using Sentinel-1 between 2017 and 2019. It captures multi-temporal rice cultivation patterns in agricultural field environments across the United States and China, offering valuable data for computer vision research in crop monitoring and mapping. The dataset contains 3,024 images across 4 classes: 2019Canifornia, EImage, ThImage, TImage.  
Images per class:
- 2019Canifornia: 375
- EImage: 706
- ThImage: 884
- TImage: 1,059

This dataset is indexed on https://project-agml.github.io/ as part of the AgML python library.
