Scientists have produced the most detailed 3D map of almost all buildings in the world. The map, called GlobalBuildingAtlas, combines satellite imagery and machine learning to generate 3D models for ...

Generalizable active mapping in complex unknown environments remains a critical challenge for mobile robots. Existing methods, constrained by insufficient training data and conservative exploration ...

Abstract: Discrete chaotic systems based on memristors exhibit excellent dynamical properties and are more straightforward to implement in hardware, making them highly suitable for generating ...

From a digital vantage point in orbit, scientists have mapped every building on Earth—2.75 billion structures, all in 3D. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have unveiled the ...

Abstract: Accurate and timely mapping of different crop types holds significant importance for food security and crop management at regional and global levels. This letter proposes a novel 3-D-crop ...

The Edmonton Police Service (EPS) piloted a new technology in the fall that could track officers and pedestrians at underground LRT stations. Partnering with Esri Canada, and funded by a $1.3 million ...

When the IBM PC was new, I served as the president of the San Francisco PC User Group for three years. That’s how I met PCMag’s editorial team, who brought me on board in 1986. In the years since that ...
