Creation of special online base of satellite photos SpaceNet should become result of similar collaboration and development of AI. By this time DigitalGlobe already published pictures of Rio de Janeiro which permission makes 50 cm in base. About 200 thousand buildings in the territory in 1.9 thousand sq.km which got on pictures were marked manually that is necessary for a training of machine algorithms of AI.
DigitalGlobe noted that SpaceNet eventually will receive the pictures covering 500 thousand sq.km of the territory of Earth.
