Leveraging NASA LiDAR Data from the ISS Space Station and WatsonX AI Tech to Preserve Some of the World’s Most Important Ecological Domains
At The Bloomington Group Ltd., we’re feeling so hyped and inspired after a recent visit to South America. The work there is part of our Sustainability / Green Sector portfolio. We travelled down the Amazon River and its tributaries by boat, spent time in the Amazon Rainforest, and visited the incredible Ballestas Islands in all their biodiversity.
Our projects in South America include introducing and implementing ahead-of-the-curve IBM WatsonX AI enabled technologies with our clients to help monitor and preserve some of the continent’s and the world’s most important ecological domains, including, most vitally, the Amazon Rainforest.
In addition to using IBM block chain technology with various tracking projects, we’re especially thrilled to be rolling out IBM’s state-of-the-art AI enabled Environmental Intelligence Suite (EIS), which provides powerful analytics leveraging NASA LiDAR data from the ISS Space Station, on-the-ground sampling and other scientific data.
How precious and wondrous these ecosystems are – and what a thrill it is to be engaged in these conservation and preservation efforts, all while helping our clients to thrive sustainably and achieve great things.
