OGC Seeks Public Comment on New Standard for Training Data for AI/ML Applications March 27, 2023 by The Open Geospatial Consortium Blog Training data plays a fundamental role in Earth Observation (EO) Artificial Intelligence Machine Learning (AI/ML) applications, especially Deep Learning (DL). It is used to train, validate, and test AI/ML models. Understanding the source and applicability of training data allows for better understanding of the results of AI/ML operations. To maximize the interoperability and re-usability of geospatial training data, the candidate TrainingDML-AI Standard defines a model and encodings consistent with the OGC Standards baseline to exchange and retrieve the training data via the Web. |
