Solving Real-World Problems

Our work makes a positive impact on employees and customers.

Case: Earth Data Store

Optimizing innovation through machine-learning and analytics
Earth Observation and geospatial data provides an opportunity for our team members to help solve many of the world’s current challenges, such as optimizing agriculture to feed more people and help prevent wildfires, but the challenge is access to the right data with the necessary analytics-ready quality. Currently, researchers and developers spend 80% of their time gathering, correcting and formatting data and only 20% innovating new applications. Earth Data Store aims to flip these numbers so 80% of the time can be spent on innovating!

Solution:
A world-leading geospatial and earth observation ecosystem that provides high-quality Analytics Ready Data (ARD) and enables applications with machine learning and AI to help solve critical environmental challenges.

Approach:
The Earth Data Store Project (Phase 1) is a unique collaborative effort between EarthDaily Analytics, Microsoft, Sparkgeo, UBC, UVIC, and GeoScience BC with co-investment provided by Canada’s Digital Supercluster.

The project started in July 2019 and will complete after 15 months of development. The team is developing world-leading capabilities in automated earth observation, raw data processing, machine learning, cloud computing, data standardization (using STAC), and application development for environmental monitoring and insurance risk assessment.

Outcome:
Team members enjoy the excitement and challenge of working in collaboration with multiple companies and universities in a joint initiative. Earth Data Store is providing the team with an opportunity to collaborate on new open source standards such as STAC, making it much easier for end users to work with Satellite data from multiple space sensors.

Optimizing the world’s food supply through better agriculture practices, being able to predict wildfires before they occur, improved environment monitoring to be able to clean up fuel spills much quicker, providing insurance claims to customers much quicker, etc. Collaboration with universities supports the training of students in the complex area of Earth Observation and “Big Data”, building BC’s highly-skilled workforce for the future.

Future Work
The current project is the first phase of a multi-year vision to build a world leading Earth Data Store ecosystem where many new data sources and applications will be developed to help all of humanity live better and healthier lives.
