Sense making from multi-source, electro-optical, remote sensing constellations (Plenary Presentation)
20 August 2024 • 3:35 PM - 4:15 PM PDT | Conv. Ctr. Room 18
Abstract
With 140+ petabytes of historical data holdings, 3.8 million square kilometers of daily multi-spectral collection, integration of Synthetic Aperture Radar and newly launching assets every quarter, the opportunities to develop insight from sense making technologies at Maxar are ever growing. During this discussion, we will cover the challenges of collecting, organizing, and exploiting multi source electro-optical remote sensing systems at scale using modern machine learning architectures and techniques to derive actionable insights.
