Episode notes

There are much more interesting problems to try to solve than the one that I described. Now, later we started to work trying to model certain aspects of how the territory works. We have developed some interesting models for detecting and classifying vegetation. Also for things like weird, like tracking cars,. That is like a kind of proxy of the society, how the society moves. Because everything is on our aerial service. You only have to have the skills to bring back that information and convert it in something useful.

Your feed might be dominated by LLMs these days, but there are some amazing things happening in computer vision that you shouldn’t ignore! In this episode, we bring you one of those amazing stories from Gabriel Ortiz, who is working with the government of Cantabria in Spain to automate cartography and apply AI to geospatial analysis. We hear about how AI tooling fits into the GIS workflow, and Gabriel shares some of his recent work (including work that can identify individual people, invasive plant species, building and more from aerial survey data).
