DIUx xView Detection Challenge
In 2018 our algorithm was awarded as one of the top 5 by the Department of Defence and NGA National Geospatial Agency for the application of computer vision to overhead imagery to detect emerging natural disasters, improve response, quantify the direct and indirect impact — and save lives. The competition resulted in over 2,000 submissions from all over the world and top algorithms outperformed government baseline by over 200%.
Defence Innovation Challenge
The NATO Communications and Information (NCI) Agency awarded us in 2019 for our work on ship detection and monitoring port activities using Artificial Intelligence on Very High Resolution Satellite Imagery.
Copernicus Academy
We are a founding member of the Copernicus Academy. The goal of the network is to link research with authorities & service providers, facilitate collaborative research and promote education to empower the next generation with suitable skill sets to use Copernicus data and information services to their full potential.
Member of Global Network for Disaster Reduction
The Global Network of Civil Society Organisations for Disaster Reduction (GNDR) is the largest international network of organisations committed to working together to improve the lives of people affected by disasters world-wide.
Member of FG-AI4NDM
The Focus Group on AI for Natural Disaster Management (FG-AI4NDM) capitalizes on the growing interest and novelty of AI in the field of natural disaster management to help lay the groundwork for best practices in the use of AI for: assisting with data collection and handling, improving modelling across spatiotemporal scales, and providing effective communication.
Signatory of the Global Compact
The United Nations Global Compact is the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative. A call to companies to align strategies and operations with universal principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption, and take actions that advance societal goals.
