On-demand building detection over Norway

S&T recently competed in a building detection competition (MapAI), hosted by nora.ai, getting the “bronze” medal. 

The detection of building footprints is an important task for several reasons, such as:

• Updating local databases.

• Monitoring undisturbed habitats for wildlife.

• Detecting illegal buildings.

• Assessing damage after disasters.

The output of this competition is a product that detects building footprints at 1m or 25cm resolution, according to wishes and data availability. Using LIDAR, S&T can generate an on-demand map for any commune/region in Norway within a few days. 

Check out a short animation showing what we can do!
