The rise of predictive commerce: open data to anticipate needs
In a world where immediacy is becoming increasingly important, predictive commerce has become a key tool for anticipating consumer behaviors, optimizing decisions, and offering personalized experiences. It's no longer just about reacting to the customer's needs, it's about predicting what they…
Building footprints: open data that saves lives in emergencies
In a world increasingly exposed to natural hazards and humanitarian crises, accurate and up-to-date geospatial data can make the difference between effective response and delayed reaction. The building footprints, i.e. the contours of buildings as they appear on the ground, are one of the most valua…
Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI): how open data can help understand algorithms
The increasing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in critical areas such as public administration, financial services or healthcare has brought the need for algorithmic transparency to the forefront. The complexity of AI models used to make decisions such as granting credit or making a…
