IBM's Open-Source Terramind AI Uses 9 Data Modalities To Transform Earth Observation
SiliconANGLE, Tuesday, April 22nd, 2025
IBM Corp. is partnering with the European Space Agency to create an artificial intelligence system that will keep tabs on climate change and other global issues, such as water scarcity, in real time using space-based data.
IBM says the new system, called TerraMind, is the most advanced 'Earth observation' model ever conceived, and it's being made available to researchers through the Hugging Face platform today.
The open-source model was trained on TerraMesh, which is the largest set of freely available geospatial data, created by researchers as part of the TerraMind project.
