Exciting new possibilities with geospatial embeddings and geo RAG: paradigms like these are the future of spatial information and spatial intelligence.
The world is dynamic though, and we will need to build tools to handle staying up to date with anomalies, emerging events, and changes. I see this kind of geo AI UX for Earth coupled with continuously updating remote sensing data behind the scenes as a bright future for a co-pilot for Earth.
Geo-Embedding arithmetic, a field unlocked thanks to the introduction of globeholder.ai universal embeddings opens up new possibilities, unimaginable prior :
° Given successful store locations in your current stack, where to open in new cities ?
° Which locations in City A are most similar to City B ?
° Without any data on new cities, predict metrics based on the previous ones.
° Geo-RAG: Fully spatially aware RAG pipelines.

🛰️🛰️ Landsat is the unsung hero of satellite imaging.
🌐 Landsat is a series of Earth-observing satellites launched by NASA and the US Geological Survey (USGS) since the early 1970s. These satellites orbit the Earth, capturing high-resolution images of our planet's surface in stunning detail.
📸 What is Landsat's objective?
From lush forests to sprawling urban landscapes, Landsat captures a wide range of Earth's features, including:
Land Use and Land Cover: Monitoring changes in vegetation, urbanization, agriculture, and natural habitats over time.
Water Resources: Tracking changes in water bodies, such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, and monitoring water quality.
Natural Disasters: Assisting in disaster response by mapping the extent of floods, wildfires, and other natural events.
Climate Change: Providing essential data for climate research, including monitoring glacier retreat, sea ice extent, and deforestation.
🔍 How Does Landsat Work?
Landsat satellites use multispectral sensors to capture data across different wavelengths of light, allowing scientists to analyse various aspects of the Earth's surface. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology is then used to process and analyse Landsat imagery, enabling:
Spatial Analysis: Identifying patterns and trends in land use, vegetation health, and environmental changes.
Image Classification: Categorizing land cover types, such as forests, croplands, and urban areas, for mapping and monitoring purposes.
Change Detection: Comparing images taken at different times to detect and quantify changes in the landscape over time.
Remote Sensing: Using satellite data to study the Earth's surface without direct physical contact, facilitating monitoring of inaccessible or remote areas.
🌱 Impact of Landsat: The data collected by Landsat has revolutionised our understanding of Earth's dynamic processes and has been instrumental in:
📌 Improving land management practices and agricultural productivity.
📌 Supporting urban planning and infrastructure development.
📌 Monitoring environmental changes and biodiversity loss.
📌 Contributing to disaster preparedness and response efforts.

👉A union that is shaping our future
🌏 GIS (Geographic Information System) and AI (Artificial Intelligence) are two distinct but complementary fields.
✅GIS focuses on capturing, storing, analyzing, and visualizing geographic data, while AI involves creating systems that can perform tasks that would typically require human intelligence.
✅When combined, AI can enhance GIS by automating processes such as data analysis, pattern recognition, and decision-making. Conversely, GIS provides valuable spatial context to AI algorithms, enabling them to make more informed decisions based on geographic information.
✅This synergy between GIS and AI has applications in various industries, including urban planning, environmental management, logistics, and public health.

The American Geographical Society sincerely thanks gold sponsor GeoRobotix Inc. for helping to make the 10th annual Geography2050 symposium possible.
GeoRobotix transforms the Internet of Things into a Web of location-enabled and geographically aware robots, and augments humans’ abilities to perceive, understand, and act on the world around them. GeoRobotix provides an open SaaS solution to the automation of GeoRobots as they augment humans’ ability to tackle critical mission and business challenges, whether hyper-local, regional, and global in scale.
The American Geographical Society, in partnership with the Columbia Climate School, will host geo-leaders from a wide range of geographic disciplines on November 21-22 in New York City to discuss #climatechange, international #cooperation, and conflict resolution. Presentations and lightning talks span #GEOINT, #geoengineering, #energy, #sustainability, and #climateresilience topics. The work of GeoRobotix connects to the critical climate, environmental, and geographic research of Geography2050 participants in academia, the realm of public governance, and the geospatial private sector.
