Accuracy has been calculated based on peer-review research and gathered survey information from the PLI-Review Web Application. The Prairie Landscape Inventory (PLI) working team of Habitat Unit in the Fish, Wildlife and Lands Branch, Ministry of Environment aims to develop improved methods of assessing land cover and land use for conservation. Native grassland, in particular, has been one of the most hard to map at risk ecosystems because of difficulty for imagery classification methods to distinguish native from tame grasslands. Improved classification methods will provide valuable information for habitat suitability, identifying high biodiversity potential and invasion risk potential.  This reliability map brings the understanding of classification accuracy (certainty) into a spatial scale prospective, illustrating the level of accuracy of the PLI Classification raster for each location. This map is scaled between 100 to 0, 100 is representing the highest accuracy, and 0 is absolutely the highest uncertainty.  The Prairie Landscape Inventory (PLI) - Mixed Grassland Classification raster has a resolution of 10m and was based on machine learning analysis and remote sensing data of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery.
