Abstract

The CLARKE building and road damage assessment AI classifier was incorporated into the Catastrophic Unmanned Remote Sensing Exercise (CURSE) 2026, which trained 23 small uncrewed aerial systems (sUAS) teams from state and local agencies and non-governmental organizations in Florida and Missouri on how to collect imagery for an incident command Remote Sensing Cell. Although CLARKE has been operationally deployed to two hurricanes (Debby and Helene), CURSE'26 presented an opportunity to evaluate the machine learning model with a larger set of never-before-seen orthomosaics. The results show that
