Description
In an announcement made in early August 2023, IBM announced the release of their joint project with NASA, watsonx.ai geospatial foundation model, as open-source on Hugging Face. The model, which is the largest of its kind available in the open-source AI development environment, is also described in the press release as the first open-source AI foundation model built in collaboration with NASA. As part of the Space Act Agreement with NASA, IBM began construction on the model earlier this year to address obstacles the aerospace association faces in analyzing tremendous and growing amounts of climate and geospatial data.
