### 🛠 Model Purpose
This model is part of the **[GeoAi](https://github.com/decision-labs/geoai.js)** javascript library.

**GeoAi** enables geospatial AI inference **directly in the browser or Node.js** without requiring a heavy backend.

**GeoAi** pipeline accepts **geospatial polygons** as input (in GeoJSON format) and outputs results as a **GeoJSON FeatureCollection**, ready for use with libraries like **Leaflet** and **Mapbox GL**.

### 💡 Example Usage

```javascript
import { geoai } from "geoai";

// Example polygon (GeoJSON)
const polygon = {
  type: "Feature",
  properties: {},
  geometry: {
    coordinates: [
      [
        [-121.77483138694643, 38.55347243518358],
        [-121.77483138694643, 38.553215934463736],
        [-121.77421502202081, 38.553215934463736],
        [-121.77421502202081, 38.55347243518358],
        [-121.77483138694643, 38.55347243518358]
      ],
    ],
    type: "Polygon",
  },
} as GeoJSON.Feature;

// Initialize pipeline
const pipeline = await geoai.pipeline(
  [{ task: "solar-panel-detection" }],
  providerParams
);
 
// Run detection
const result = await pipeline.inference({
  inputs: { polygon }
});
 
// Sample output format

//                             [54.69521093930892, 24.766579711184693],

//                             [54.69479163045772, 24.766203991224682],
//                             [54.69479163045772, 24.766579711184693],
//                         ]
//                     ]
