When you’re looking for a startup idea that could slow climate change, you might become an expert at home energy assessments.
Instead, the startup has put together a small team of engineers to create its own AI model specialized in home energy assessments using machine learning.
The company uses open data, such as satellite images, as well as its own training data set with millions of photos and energy assessments.
In the company’s first tests, its home energy assessments have been accurate within 5% of old-fashioned assessments.
The startup has now raised €4.7 million ($5.1 million at today’s exchange rate) with Racine² leading the round and a non-dilutive investment from Bpifrance.
Vibrant Planet looks to be one of those solutions.
The startup digitizes land mapping and uses AI to help its users — fire departments and government bureaus — better manage land and also better prepare for potential climate incidents like wildfires.
“[It’s] very collaborative with spatially overlapped plans.”Moving the mapping online also allows organizations to work together on land management solutions that work for everyone.
“Vibrant Planet is a science and technology platform that is creating what we call a common operating picture for wildfire resilience and nature resilience,” Wolff said.
And we’re using it in the natural resource management and wildfire resilience building space, because we have to, it’s very urgent.”
Ingenuity, the small helicopter that’s been buzzing around the Red Planet for almost three years, has taken its final flight.
NASA announced today that at least one of the helicopter’s carbon fiber rotor blades was damaged during its last mission, grounding it for good.
As NASA Administrator Bill Nelson explained in a statement today, Ingenuity was up against the very, very thin Martian atmosphere, which is less than 1% as dense as Earth’s.
It arrived on the Red Planet attached to the underside of the Perseverance rover, which is still active on Mars’ surface.
Just last week, NASA experienced a two-day communications blackout with the little helicopter after it conducted what turned out to be its final flight.
