Announcing the Winners of the Open AI Tanzania Challenge

[viv...@werobotics.org]

Dear All,

Yesterday, we announced the winners of our Open AI Challenge Tanzania.

Maps are absolutely essential for decision support. Knowing where buildings are located is a fundamental input for urban planning, public safety, public health, disaster response, environmental protection, sustainable development and census data, for example. Some of these applications typically require timely and high-resolution maps. Aerial imagery makes for the highest resolution maps possible but it is also becoming a Big Data problem that we are trying to solve with the Open AI Challenge initiative and supporting partners.

The two winning finalists were formally announced on December 6, 2018 at the Experts Meeting on Aerial AI in Geneva, Switzerland. First place goes to Dave Luo from Anthropocene Labs who had an overall score of 0.697 on the final dataset,  and in second place Philip Popien from Vexcel with a score of 0.690. Read more on our blog and watch the winners' present their project.

Dave Luo, Anthropocene Labs
