➡️Launching soon, SpaceNet 8 Challenge! Our latest challenge, titled "Flood Detection Challenge Using Multiclass Segmentation", will be launching soon. Stayed tuned for more details. #OpenSource #Geospatial spacenet.ai

Happy Holidays! Thanks to our partners, supporters & challenge participants. We look forward to further innovation & collaboration in 2022 with the launch of SpaceNet 8, focusing on automated analysis of flooding damage assessment. #OpenSource #Geospatial spacenet.ai

Yesterday at #GEOINT2021 Maxar’s Todd Bacastow, Sr Director, Corporate Strategy, talked about SpaceNet and the AI/ML prize challenges. Want to know more about SpaceNet? Learn more here: spacenet.ai #AI #ML

For the past five years SpaceNet has been accelerating open source, applied research in geospatial machine learning. Today we celebrate the key accomplishments and milestones of this one-of-a-kind initiative! ow.ly/w0wg50DNa71 #geospatial #opensource

Building footprints provide a useful proxy for many humanitarian applications. Our new paper discusses efforts to develop techniques for precise building footprint localization, tracking, & change detection via the #SpaceNet7 challenge. ow.ly/lkjm50DL8lI #geospatial

Building tracking and change detection from moderate satellite imagery is surprisingly tractable. Our final #SpaceNet7 analysis blog explores winning model performance with an interactive map and provides details on how to access the #opensource models. ow.ly/cAiq50DBTpX

Our new blog analyzes the results of #SpaceNet7 to explore how the SpaceNet Change and Object Tracking (SCOT) metric acts with real-world data. Do the different parts of the metric really measure what they claim to measure? Spoiler alert - they do! ow.ly/sD8950DuBqq

What was a main theme in the #SpaceNet7 challenge results? Overachieving pixels. Our new blog dives into this, comparing results to past SpaceNet challenges, and explores predictions with an interactive map. ow.ly/Zb2F50Dm0VY #geospatial #opensource

Part II of our #SpaceNet7 results deep dive is here! Learn more about the winning algorithm, the innovations that vastly improved upon the baseline model, and an unexpected performance curve. ow.ly/NLFZ50COxq4 Stay tuned next month as we continue to explore results.
