How an AI map could help us better prepare for the next flood

Since 2013, Canada-based Ecopia AI have been on a mission to create a 'digital twin' of the world. The goal is simple - help governments, companies and communities better understand the needs and problems facing their local areas. Expanding on their practice, Ecopia recently partnered with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in the U.S. in order to build high-precision maps of the country's shorelines and identify ways to help coastal communities reduce the impact of some urban flooding.
