Accurate detection of aircraft contrails from satellite imagery is a valuable capability for studying one of the most impactful yet uncertain climate effects of aviation. In a recent study published in IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, Irene Ortiz Abuja and co-authors critically assess the performance of state-of-the-art deep learning models trained on the OpenContrails dataset, with the aim of explaining the segmentation performance plateau widely reported
