Revisiting the top downloaded episodes of Impact AI... Bringing transparency and accuracy to the marketplace by producing high-quality data on all types of hard problems is a main focus for today’s guest and the company he works for. I am pleased to welcome David Marvin to Impact AI. David was the Co-Founder and CEO of Salo Sciences, which was acquired by Planet last year, and is now the Product Lead for Forest Ecosystems there! He joins me to talk about monitoring forests. We delve into his background and path to Salo Sciences and their eventual acquisition by Planet; including the original mission and vision and what they worked to accomplish at Salo. David then explains his goals and focus at Planet, and unpacks the types of satellite imagery, models, and sensors they incorporate into their data and outputs. He highlights their approach to validation, how they are reducing bias, and how they are integrating extensive knowledge to empower their machine learning developers to create powerful models. https://lnkd.in/ePahuHG4 #RemoteSensing #EarthObservation #MachineLearning #DeepLearning #ComputerVision

⏩ "Ecopia’s data allows us to overcome the limitations of manual data collection by providing a more comprehensive and accurate picture of our pedestrian network, ensuring that we capture a fuller representation of the region's infrastructure,” - Joshua Manning ⏪ Previously, South Central Planning and Development Commission undertook a manual sidewalk inventory, where planning staff drove along major roadways to identify sidewalks and evaluate their quality and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). While this method provided valuable insights, it was time-consuming and ultimately led to incomplete data, as many sidewalks—particularly those off arterial or collector roads—were overlooked. Recognizing the challenges associated with manual digitization, SCPDC partnered with Ecopia. Ecopia leveraged AI-powered technology to quickly deliver comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date transportation data, including sidewalk inventory data across the region.

Digital mapping techniques are revolutionizing the way we navigate and understand our world. By leveraging advanced technologies such as GIS, satellite imagery, and AI, we can create precise, interactive maps that provide invaluable insights for various industries. These innovations not only enhance spatial analysis but also drive smarter decision-making and efficiency. #DigitalMapping #Innovation #TechAdvancements

GIS with base satellite maps used to be sufficient, but the increasing value of AI and ML has made homogenous and highly accurate aerial imagery data essential for managing assets and achieving the optimal customer experience. Daily data updates are important for certain use cases, but if the end goals are to increase safety, reduce O&M costs, and improve reliability, better visualization and higher horizontal accuracy from Vexcel's Data Program of what is in the field becomes paramount. Let's work together to help elevate your operations goals with aerial imagery and stay ahead of the curve. #GIS #AI #ML #AssetManagement #CustomerExperience #aerialimagery #gridmodernization #VexcelDataProgram
