Artificial Intelligence has become a hot topic these days, where everything is now AI enabled. The Geo industry is not an exception, various geo tools are now being infused by AI and ML models. Most of the time these models are somewhat black box where various tools just "trust" the models. This talk will provide a high-level introduction to the concepts, terms, workflows, data, and nuances of these AI systems. This is an introductory talk where anyone in the geo space may get something useful and start the conversation regarding this emerging technology.

An abundance of geospatial data is being generated from traditional means like surveying, community driven mapping like OSM or AI generated. The general question is how can we leverage these data to enable development in our communities. The workshop will go into somewhat a dive into developing geospatial applications from databases, frameworks, protocols, and visualization. It will provide an end to end workflow of the Geo Software Development Lifecycle. The workshop will showcase the different open source technologies developers can use to build their application. This is targeted for experienced web and application developers or software engineers, but aspiring geospatial application developers are also welcome to join.
