A sustainable Space for a sustainable Earth
Portugal Space and partners are putting together the next AI Moonshot Challenge.
Space provides the infrastructure for personal mobility, communication for work, weather forecasting, precision farming to maximize crop harvesting, banking transactions, management of precious resources such as potable water, monitoring of forest fires, archaeological investigations, scientific knowledge, and even the dream of expanding the reach of humanity.
Within this infrastructure, satellites, missions and programs are generating massive amounts of data. Recent developments in Artificial Intelligence position it as a key technology to translate all these data into useful information to enable all of the real-world applications.
At the same time, in order to ensure that we can properly and effectively use our space assets to provide these services and reach these goals, it is clear that we need to retain our ability to access and utilize space, increasingly cluttered by debris, in a sustainable manner.
How can we effectively manage space assets?
How will they, together with Artificial Intelligence, help us create a more sustainable Earth?
We are looking for innovative ideas in the following topics:
Space Debris Monitoring
How can AI help us minimise and keep track of Space debris?
Land resources management
How can AI and Satellite data help us preserve our land resources and contribute to a net zero carbon emissions society?
Ocean sustainability
How can AI an Satellite data help us promote ocean health and biodiversity?
