Welcome to the AI research bites. This series of short and informative talks showcases cutting-edge research work from ServiceNow AI Research team. The AI Research Bites are open to all, especially those interested in keeping up with the fast-paced AI research community. What if AI could understand our planet as clearly as it reads text or images? ServiceNow AI Research and IBM Research are collaborating under the AI Alliance to make this a reality through GeoBench V2, a next-generation benchmark for Geospatial Foundation Models. This initiative integrates multimodal, temporal, and fine-tuning capabilities to accelerate progress on Earth observation challenges such as farming, land use, and environmental change. In this talk, Alexandre Lacoste presents GeoBench V2, the project’s vision, and how it aims to drive the next wave of open, collaborative geospatial AI research.
