We’ve spent years building powerful AI models to solve real-world problems. Today we’re introducing Google Earth AI, our collection of geospatial models and datasets to help people, businesses and organizations tackle the planet’s most critical needs. AlphaEarth Foundations, also announced today, is part of Google Earth AI.
Google Earth AI expands on our recent Geospatial Reasoning effort and includes models that address multiple areas. Notable examples include detailed weather predictions, flood forecasting and wildfire detection. Other models help improve urban planning and public health by providing a rich understanding of imagery, population dynamics and urban mobility.
These models already power features used by millions, like flood and wildfire alerts in Search and Maps; they also provide actionable insights through Google Earth, Google Maps Platform and Google Cloud. As we continue this work, we’re committed to giving people the information they need to solve some of the biggest challenges of our time.
