Ai2 releases OlmoEarth v1.3
Ai2 launched OlmoEarth v1.3, a satellite map embedding model for planet-wide land cover analysis at various resolutions.
Model compresses satellite data
The model compresses one year of satellite observations into numerical fingerprints for 10-by-10-meter patches of ground.
Embeddings for land cover analysis
Embeddings capture patterns to distinguish crops, forests, mines and other land cover types from satellite imagery.
Browser-based tool for users
Users can create maps without sign-in or gpu resources through OlmoEarth Embeddings Explorer.
Satellite data sources
OlmoEarth uses radar images from sentinel-1, sentinel-2 and landsat satellite missions for earth observation.
Performance improvements
v1.3 uses 53% less computing time and 50% fewer carbon emissions than v1.2 while maintaining strong fine-tuning capabilities.
Real-world applications
The tool tracks illegal mining in peru’s tambopata national reserve and identifies forest loss after regulatory shutdowns.
In short
Ai2 released OlmoEarth v1.3, a browser-based tool that compresses satellite data into AI-ready embeddings for planet-wide land cover analysis without GPU requirements.
