Alpha Earth Foundations: Mapping a Changing Planet with AI

A fast-paced deep dive into AEF, the July 2025 geospatial AI that fuses optical, radar, climate, and more to produce high-resolution, time-aware maps of Earth's land and coasts. Learn how it tackles data overload and sparse labels with compact embeddings, delivers 10×10 meter detail, and reduces storage needs by about 16×, while boosting accuracy ~24%. We’ll explore real-world uses for deforestation, food security, and urban monitoring, with examples from FAO and MapBiomas and a look at future directions like integrating with LLMs.
