GeoAI Challenge

Everything happens somewhere – applying machine learning to geospatial analysis

Join the GeoAI Challenge in 2023 (second edition), a competition aimed at providing solutions for collaboratively addressing real-world geospatial problems by applying artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML).  Through this platform, participants will attempt to address the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related problems using real-world data. In addition, participants will acquire hands-on experience in AI/ML in areas relevant to solving SDGs and compete for prizes, recognition, and certificates.

Compute platform

ITU provides a state-of-the-art, free-of-charge compute platform to participants of the Challenge who do not have adequate access to compute in their respective institutions. The compute platform will provide participants with access to:

 

  • Free GPUs and CPUs
  • Hosted Jupyter notebook server
  • Python kernel
  • Pre-installed machine learning packages, e.g. PyTorch and Tensorflow

 

In some of the problem statements, a baseline or reference solution may be offered which may include implementations using Jupyter notebooks.
