On May 15-16, the 13th Global Geographic Information Developers Conference (WGDC 2024) was held in Beijing. The WGDC Global Geographic Information Developer Conference, which has the reputation of "innovation vane" in science and technology and industry, has always been an important release platform for new technologies, new products and new services in the field of geospatial information.
At the meeting, the "Innovation Awards Annual Innovation Power List" was announced. With years of deep cultivation in the field of remote sensing and application, as well as the innovative achievements of promoting remote sensing technology with large models, Xingtu was listed in the WGDC 2024 "Top 100 Most Innovative Enterprises of the Year", and its product Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine won the WGDC2024 "Top 30 Most Innovative Products of the Year", which fully affirmed the technological innovation and application of the company and its products in the past year.
With the acceleration of the era of artificial intelligence, large models bring new paradigms and new opportunities to the geographic information industry. Based on the new remote sensing model and other technologies, in July 2023, Zhongke Xingtu Digital Earth Hefei Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Xingtu Earth") upgraded the core of the digital earth and released the Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine.
This is a computable digital earth core engine based on the autonomous remote sensing intelligent model, deep integration of earth big data, analysis and interpretation algorithms and supercomputers, which provides users with intelligent processing of earth data, intelligent perception of earth information, and intelligent reconstruction of earth scenes through intensive "intelligent computing", and opens various computing power interfaces to Internet users, so as to quickly build cloud applications and provide high-quality spatio-temporal content services for earth science research, remote sensing industry applications, and public daily life.
At the Commercial Satellite and Remote Sensing AI Forum, Ma Shuliang, Product Manager of Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine, said: "The artificial intelligence model has brought more development opportunities to the application of remote sensing satellites, and with the advancement of technology from perceptual intelligence to cognitive intelligence, the application layer will also solve the pain points of the industry more deeply. At the same time, in the future, the digital earth shaped and changed by large models will gradually move from visual and calculable to intelligent earth, with the deep integration of multi-terminal applications of the Internet, through ecological open cooperation, continue to open up and gather core resources such as data, computing power, algorithms, etc., and dig deep into multi-industry application scenarios, which will eventually make remote sensing no longer "far away" from users.
At the WGDC2024 Aerospace Science and Technology Innovation Exhibition, Xingtu Earth, as the theme partner of this conference, also systematically displayed online digital earth products such as Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine, Xingtu Earth Data Cloud, and Xingtu Earth Today Image to global developers, attracting many developers in the industry to stop and exchange the broad opportunities brought by digital earth technology.
——About Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine——
At present, Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine supports multiple intelligent interpretation application scenarios such as scene classification, target recognition, ground object extraction, change detection, etc., and has supported the extraction of 35 types of ground object elements and fine targets such as buildings, cultivated land, roads, etc., as well as three-dimensional construction capabilities such as building height estimation and real-world 3D reconstruction. At the same time, on the basis of its own algorithm capabilities, the Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine further connects to the industry's advanced algorithms such as SenseTime's "Ground Boundary" AI remote sensing model to accelerate the creation of an "algorithm mall" to better meet the diverse scenario needs of users.
At the same time, Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine provides algorithm support for a number of technical competitions in the field of remote sensing. On May 9, the 2024 "Data Element ×" competition was officially launched, and the Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine provided strong algorithm support for the Anhui Branch-Aerospace Information Track, which is convenient for developers to interpret and apply remote sensing data.
On May 13, the final of the 2024 ISPRS First Technical Committee Multimodal Remote Sensing Application Algorithm Intelligent Interpretation Competition came to a successful conclusion. There were more than 800 contestants, and more than 6,000 results of various algorithms have been submitted. During the competition, in order to assist the contestants to understand the reasoning effect of the algorithm on the test set, the Xingtu Earth Intelligent Brain Engine provided technical support such as visual rendering of part of the computing power, data, and algorithm results for the competition.
