Final Devlog – Mars Terrain Classifier

The Mars Terrain Classifier is now live The model runs on Hugging Face for inference, and the frontend is deployed on Netlify. You can try it here: 🔗 https://mars-terrain-classifier.netlify.app

The model works well on clear orbital images from HiRISE, but it struggles with low-resolution photos, overexposed shots, or images with unusual color tones. It also has difficulty with rover-level photos (like from Curiosity or Perseverance) since it was trained only on orbiter data. Categories like spider and swiss cheese have fewer training samples, so predictions there are less confident. Upload a Mars image and see what happens – if it fails, it’s probably a resolution or color issue. The web UI is fully functional with drag-and-drop upload and real-time confidence scores.
