Yep exactly. Commercial satellite inagery isn’t great for detecting anything the size of a tank (yet) but drones will get you there. The real difficulty for detecting anything like this is the training data, IMO that’s the interesting part of the problem. The actual AI models are democratized and getting better every day, but few people focus on the training data. I have my own pipelines for generating data that I have been improving over >3 years, which I have used for commercial clients to make AI systems for specific use cases. WALDO is a way of dogfooding those data synth methods. I am constantly toying with the idea of opening up the data synth stuff as a service company or as an API, but my feeling is there is not quite enough demand yet to warrant that. This is changing very quickly though and now might be the right time…
