The latest versions of AcATaMa (>=24.10) is not compatible with QGIS 3.28 or older versions due to changes in a QGIS function introduced in QGIS 3.30 (see issue #22). Please update QGIS to at least the LTR version (recommended) or the latest version.
AcATaMa is a powerful and complete Qgis plugin for accuracy assessment. It provides comprehensive support for sampling, response design and estimation within a design-based inference framework. The primary goal of AcATaMa is to equip users with the necessary tools to comply with international guidance and best practices for sampling design, estimation of land category areas and changes, and map accuracy assessment.
The plugin supports accuracy assessment for any thematic map across diverse use cases. A common application is in remote sensing, particularly for land use and land cover classification, environmental monitoring, urban planning, forestry, agriculture, and more. However, AcATaMa is not limited to these applications; some modules, such as sampling and labeling, can be used independently for other user cases.
To ensure a good accuracy assessment AcATaMa provides three components: sampling design, used to select the reference sample; the response design, which allows the evaluation protocol, and finally, the analysis procedures with different estimators:
