The amount of imagery that’s collected and disseminated has increased by orders of magnitude over the past couple of years. Deep learning has been instrumental in efficiently extracting and deriving meaningful insights from these massive amounts of imagery. Last October, we released pre-trained geospatial deep learning models, making deep learning more approachable and accessible to a wide spectrum of users.

These models have been pre-trained by Esri on large volumes of data, and can be used as-is, or further fine tuned to your local geography, objects of interest or type of imagery. You no longer need huge volumes of training data and imagery, massive compute resources, or the expertise to train such models yourself. With the pre-trained models, you can bring in the raw data or imagery and extract geographical features at the click of a button. Read More
