Descrizione del progetto
Avanzamento dell’integrazione dei dati satellitari per migliori risultati di osservazione della terra
Con l’espansione dell’intelligenza artificiale, cresce la necessità di offrire prodotti e servizi di osservazione della terra a valore aggiunto. Il progetto CALLISTO, finanziato dall’Unione europea, prevede di integrare i dati di Copernicus, già indicizzati nelle piattaforme DIAS quali ONDA-DIAS, utilizzando infrastrutture di calcolo ad alte prestazioni per una maggiore scalabilità, quando necessario. Le fonti di dati distribuite complementari includono i dati di posizionamento di Galileo, il contenuto visivo di veicoli aerei senza equipaggio, nonché i dati del web e dei social media, collegati ai dati dei sensori geospaziali e in situ aperti. I metodi di intelligenza artificiale vengono quindi utilizzati per estrarre conoscenze vitali per gli utenti finali.
Obiettivo
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already part of our lives and is extensively entering the space sector to offer value-added Earth Observation (EO) products and services. Copernicus data and other georeferenced data sources are often highly heterogeneous, distributed and semantically fragmented. Large volumes of satellite data (images and associated metadata) are frequently coming to the Earth from Sentinel constellation, offering a basis for creating value-added products that go beyond the space sector. The analysis and data fusion of all streams of data need to take advantage of the existing DIAS and HPC infrastructures, as well as the Galileo-enabled mobile devices when required by the involved end users to deliver fully automated processes in decision support systems. CALLISTO project integrates Copernicus data, already indexed in DIAS platforms such as ONDA-DIAS, utilising High Performance Computing infrastructures for enhanced scalability when needed. Complementary distributed data sources involve Galileo positioning data, visual content from UAVs, Web and social media data linking them with open geospatial data, in-situ sensor data. On top of these data sources, AI methods are applied to extract meaningful knowledge such as concepts, changes, activities, events, 3D-models, videos and animations of the user community. AI methods are also executed at the edge, offering enhanced scalability and timely services. The analysis of the extracted knowledge is performed in a semantic way and the associated analytics are delivered to the end users in non-traditional interfaces, including Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Mixer Reality in general. Data fusion among several types of data sources is provided on-demand, based on the end user requirements. The AI methods are trained to offer new virtual and augmented reality applications to water utility operators, journalists for the media sector, EU agriculture and CAP policymakers, and security agencies.
