STAC Labeling Competition
In 2020, we ran a labeling competition using GroundWork as part of the Cloud Native Geospatial Sprint organized by Radiant Earth Foundation.
About the competition
At the end of 2020, we ran a labeling competition using GroundWork as part of the Cloud Native Geospatial Sprint organized by Radiant Earth Foundation. We wrote about three lessons we learned from the experience in a blog post shortly after the event, but in the intervening months we took the opportunity to reach out to contestants to hear their perspective.
Participation
We were incredibly impressed by the generosity, enthusiasm, and skill of the labeling contest participants, and we found ourselves inspired by the incredibly diverse group of people who came together, from across the world, to collaborate on a single mission. In this case, it was to raise awareness about the SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog (STAC) spec and create a hallmark training dataset compliant with the standard.
We love hearing about how people use GroundWork! If you have a project you’ve used GroundWork for you’d like us to highlight, please let us know.
