#21 Announcing SpaceNet® 6: Multi-Sensor All Weather Mapping

Training_Data by CosmiQ Works

Episode notes

Spanning three years of featuring five unique datasets and challenges, SpaceNet® continues to apply various aspects of machine learning to solve difficult foundational mapping problems. Looking ahead, Payam Banazadeh, Founder & CEO of Capella Space, joins IQT CosmiQ’s Ryan Lewis and Jake Shermeyer to discuss the SpaceNet 6 Challenge which explores an under-explored modality of data: Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The trio provide an overview on the importance of SAR data and its value in the upcoming challenge.

SpaceNet is a collaboration between CosmiQ Works, Maxar Technologies, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Intel AI, Capella Space, Topcoder, and IEEE GRSS.

Space Club Rule 42: When In Doubt, Use SAR.
