Issues with GEE Connected Components

[JrGallop]

Hi all,

I have been stuck on an issue with GEE for around two weeks now and I can't seem to sort it out. I have trouble shooted endlessly and asked questions on Google For Developers but aren't getting any solutions.

I am developing a land classification model for Nova Scotia. Overall, it is performing very well and I am pleased with the results. However, I noticed that some corners of my land classification output (see link below) were missing.

I originally thought it may be an issue with the export, but after systematically printing the result of every line in my code, it appears that the issue lies within connected components. The image (step) before I use connected components the image is larger (determined by lookin at the dimensions of the print result) than the connected component export. So I was thinking the issue lies with this function and not the export.

However, to complicate things, I tested out doing the land classification using a pixel based approach with the working theory being that the Connected Components was the issue, and I am still getting the same issue. The land classification using the pixel-based approach is also have edges of the image being masked. This doesn't make sense to me at all because I have trouble shooted my AOI and I don't think that's the issue.

You can find my script and previous post here:

I am desperate here and I really have no idea we corners are being masked.

Thanks!
