the emphasis here is obviously on market-facing customer accounts. Basic LANDSAT NASA data is open to anyone, including big companies. So is this not simply an IBM Watson 2.0, including vague and bombastic impressiveness claims?
Floods and fires are bad news, but how does this product actually get used to make things any different ?
- Frost1x 3y agoLand use classification is one of the features advertised. While some may be capable of putting together a classification system on their own, not everyone can (especially reliably). Land use often directly effects things like flooding and fires. Such classification can be used in conjunction with other models to compare say current vs proposed changes in attempts to reduce things like flooding and fires spreading. You might be talking more about mass flooding and less about, poor water overflow management and things like that in which case sure, some things are largely inactionable for humans currently. There are cases where we can have some tangible effects at least on the scales we do create and manage infrastructure though.
