The field of GeoAI is brimming with potential. With continued exploration of spatially-explicit models, question answering capabilities, and the integration of LLMs, the future of GeoAI looks bright, bringing us closer to the dream of an Artificial Geospatial Analyst.
In the pursuit of renewable energy, solar farm development holds immense potential. However, achieving maximum efficacy depends heavily on strategic location planning. This article explores a geospatial data-driven approach to selecting the optimal site for any solar farm, ensuring robust energy production and long-term viability. When selecting a site for […]
Soil organic carbon (SOC) might be invisible to the naked eye, but it’s one of the major parameters driving soil health and fertility. Measuring and predicting its levels across landscapes, especially in vulnerable semi-arid regions, is critical for sustainable land management. This blog delves into the arena of SOC mapping, […]
Soil, due to agricultural and mining activities, can pose significant threats from heavy metal contamination, impacting both environmental health and agricultural productivity. Detecting the severity of soil contamination is crucial. Traditional ground-based methods involve designing regular soil sampling strategies with a measurement depth of 0-5 cm, followed by chemical analysis […]
The early part of the twenty-first century has recorded the forest carbon loss increasing in the tropical regions. A remote sensing study to this effect was conducted that extensively used the vast collection of Landsat satellite images. Forest cover change Landsat 30 m spatial resolution data was aggregated yearly to […]
Kolleru Lake is India’s largest freshwater lake. In recent years, satellite images of the lake witnessed the fishpond lakes developing, drastically altering the region’s land use and land cover. The analysis employed Landsat images over the year 2018. A median image was generated using all the cloud-free images available during […]
Limiting future climate change is increasingly getting attention across the globe. As a result, energy generation and consumption patterns are changing, also known as clean energy transition. However, this transition is not going uniform across the communities, making it towards economic disparities. There are certain underserved areas far from the […]
As derived from Landsat series datasets, the satellite-based land surface temperature data is prevalent among researchers studying surface urban heat islands. Surface urban heat island is the term given to the land surface temperature difference in urban areas concerning the land surface temperature of the surrounding surface. The following are […]
