Casper Fibæk, a Research Fellow at The ESA Phi-Lab, gave a presentation titled "Earth Observation Foundation Models and their Applications" (April 11th 2024)
Abstract:
At the ESA-Philab, we are developing and testing a range of foundation models, and particularly the effect of different pretraining tasks on downstream applications. Casper will present both the work on the models, tasks, as well their use in a concrete project - mapping schools from EO data in collaboration with UNICEF.
