Using AI to help process earth observation data

From satellite images, to measurements of temperature and pressure, scientists collect a lot of information from earth observation. AI methods can help them to analyse this data faster. Julia Wasala, a PhD student at the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS), is passionate about the environment and wants to help scientists save time when analysing data: "By using AI and especially machine learning, processing data for earth observation is easier." In my research, I apply machine learning systems to Earth observation (EO) datasets. This makes commonly used AI models more accessible for EO scientists.
