GeoAI

Trillion Pixel Challenge

In June 2023, we hosted our 3rd Trillion Pixel Challenge, an interdisciplinary gathering of experts from image science, computer vision, high-performance computing, architecture, machine learning, advanced workflows, and end-user communities to discuss the way forward in scaling multimodal GeoAI.
