About Earth Intelligence
- It indicates the application of AI to Earth observation data to deliver solutions specific to industries and business functions.
- It is the practice of combining data from satellite imagery and remote sensors with social, economic, and policy information to generate actionable insights about our planet.

- It is the next step in this process, transforming raw data into actionable insights by integrating Earth and social science, advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, and co-produced knowledge from local and Indigenous communities.
- It can identify fallen trees blocking railroad tracks after a storm, monitor the temperature of every metal refinery to assess global production, count vehicles to analyse traffic patterns and consumer trends, and track sea cargo to evaluate shipping activity.
- It would significantly impact every industry as it rapidly moves from government to the private sector.
