Abstract: A computer-implemented method for predicting a cropland data layer (CDL) for a current year includes: retrieving a first set of records from a historical CDL database, where the first set corresponds to sampled areas of a region taken over a period for a number of years; retrieving a second set of records from a historical imagery database, where the second set corresponds to the sampled areas of the region, the period, and the number of years; employing the second set as inputs to train a deep learning network to generate the first set; retrieving a third set of records from a current imagery database, where the third set corresponds to a prescribed region, and where the third set corresponds to the time period and the current year; and using the third set as inputs and executing the trained deep learning network to generate a predicted CDL for the current year.

Abstract: A garment hanger is disclosed. The hanger comprises a body that includes at least one hook, two diagonal side legs, wherein the side legs may be of different lengths, and a horizontal bottom leg defining at least two notches. The elements of the hanger may be converged with one another at their respective ends using techniques for welding, adhesion, or the like, except the second end of one side leg remains detached. Alternatively, the entire body of the hanger, including all elements, may be formed in one continuous body using techniques for molding, stamping, three-dimensional printing, or the like.
