Data Spaces and the Role of the State: Building Sustainable Data Ecosystems

Over the past few years, substantial private and public investments have gone into data spaces, data trustee models, and digital infrastructure. From a technological perspective, we have made significant progress. Standards, connectors, digital identities, wallets, and governance models are now sufficiently mature to support the development of productive data ecosystems. Read More

Flagship Project FutureForest: AI Support for Climate-Resilient Forestry

General Interest News Projects Artificial Intelligence conferences Data Management Data Spaces Environmental Data FutureForest Geodata Interoperability Projects Research Strategy
The effects of climate change create great challenges for our forests. Droughts, fires, storms, and pests are all on the rise, and existing forestry know-how is often no longer enough to set our woods up for a secure and climate-resilient future. This is where the FutureForest project comes in. Read More

Guessing Better: Embracing uncertainty in (forest) decisions

Guessing Better: Embracing uncertainty in (forest) decisions

General Interest Opinion Artificial Intelligence Data Science Projects Research Strategy
Forests are messy, models are wrong. Numerical models are amazing. They are clean, logical, and reassuringly mathematical. But as George Box reminds us, “all Models are wrong, but some are useful”. This is especially true for dynamic, ecological systems such as forests. Forest development is difficult to predict. When… Read More

Note: You can find the original German press release for this project here. At present, the availability of high-quality annotated environmental data, usable to train Machine Learning (ML) algorithms is very limited. Within the project “LabelledGreenData4All”, the need as well as the potential of these high-quality data sets… Read More
