The ɸ-sat-2 mission will demonstrate the benefits of artificial intelligence (AI) technology for Earth observation. The mission will address a wide range of AI applications including: transforming a satellite image to a street map, cloud detection in order to reduce the volume of data to be downlinked to the ground, autonomous detection and classification of maritime vessels, as well as forest monitoring and anomaly detection.
The use of these technologies will lead to new ways of collecting, distributing and analysing data about our planet.
