We now have the spatial and temporal resolution to keep up with the cadence of a modern city. These presenters show you new ways to look at our urban landscape.

Masters of bureaucratic ju-jitsu show you how to get bureaucracy out of the way so that we can work together on common goals across government, NGOs, and companies with some of the biggest data footprints.

Let’s peel away the hype and talk specifics on artificial intelligence for earth observations. What can you expect as a customer of AI? What’s the current state of the art and what can AI tell us? What are the pre-reqs in order to do this well?

Government and commercial imagery providers are making data available on the cloud in analysis ready formats that support planetary scale analysis, AI, and integration into web apps. Stories from the trenches on how to get data autonomously prepped for analysis and what it means to have your own workflows ready to take advantage of these next generation datasets.

We have the data to support rapid calibration of crop health and yield, to truly precisely predict food crisis before they start. People on the front lines of food security talk about how we can operationalize food intelligence to prevent hunger.

Hear how these leaders are helping us see through the smoke of wildfires, detect and measure the gas leaking into the air from faulty pipelines, and capture the world at night. This is the tech that we need to go beyond what the capabilities of our human eye and to maximize the capabilities of machines + data from space.

Satellites are one tool for witnessing atrocities as they unfold, even in the most closed and remote societies. We’ll discuss how satellite analysis, combine with other accounts and data in the quest for justice.

Using precision satellites to get the right shot at the right time and change the lives of thousands of people enslaved at sea. Building the tools for journalists to unite the right images with their investigation to capture the story. Rockstar storytellers share how they’re using maps and imagery to share compelling stories with audiences around the world.

AI isn’t replacing humans, its helping humans work smarter and faster. Hear from industry leaders in applied AI about emerging design patterns in combining humans and machines to build a queryable planet.

Conservation has led the pack in application of satellite data to their work. People on the cutting edge of this space talk about where the field is going and what other sectors can learn from building realtime global monitoring that informs operations.

Most satellites spend half their time over a dark planet. The back pass is often seen as dead time, but its remarkable what you can learn about the world at night. Forest fires, oil production, economic activity.. all shine at night.
