Exploring space from the ground: open satellite data in Europe and its applications
The value of open satellite data in Europe
Satellites have become essential tools for understanding the planet and managing resources efficiently. The European Union (EU) has developed an advanced space infrastructure with the aim of providing real-time data on the environment, navigation and meteor…
New geospatial data capture techniques: innovations for more efficient data governance
Geospatial data capture is essential for understanding our environment, making informed decisions and designing effective policies in areas such as urban planning, natural resource management or emergency response. In the past, this process was mainly manual and labour-intensive, based on ground mea…
SLM, LLM, RAG and Fine-tuning: Pillars of Modern Generative AI
In the fast-paced world of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), there are several concepts that have become fundamental to understanding and harnessing the potential of this technology. Today we focus on four: Small Language Models(SLM), Large Language Models(LLM), Retrieval Augmented Generation…
Complying with Europe. The High Value Sites of Earth Observation and Environment Regulation
The European Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/138 sets clear guidelines for public bodies on the availability of high-value datasets within 16 months from 20 January 2023. These high-value high value datasets (High value datasets or HVD) are grouped into the following themes, which were…
GRAPH QL. Your best ally for the creation of data products.
The era of digitalisation in which we find ourselves has filled our daily lives with data products or data-driven products. In this post we discover what they are and show you one of the key data technologies to design and build this kind of products: GraphQL.
Introduction
Let's start at the beginni…
UNE specifications as a complement to ISO standards for the governance, management and quality of Information Systems and Technologies
Standardisation is essential to improve efficiency and interoperability in governance and data management. The adoption of standards provides a common framework for organising, exchanging and interpreting data, facilitating collaboration and ensuring data consistency and quality. The ISO standards,…
RAG - Retrieval Augmented Generation: The key that unlocks the door to precision language models
Teaching computers to understand how humans speak and write is a long-standing challenge in the field of artificial intelligence, known as natural language processing (NLP). However, in the last two years or so, we have seen the fall of this old stronghold with the advent of large language models (L…
Spain, one of countries that is an open data trendsetter
Like every other year, the EU Open Data Portal has just published the results of its report Open Data Maturity 2022. It is a study that assesses the maturity of European countries in the field of open data and it provides an overview of the good practices followed in Eu…
Improving efficiency in the legal sector: LegalTech and data analytics
Digital transformation affects all sectors, from agriculture to tourism and education. Among its objectives is the optimization of processes, the improvement of the customer experience and even the promotion of new business models.
The legal sector is no exception, which is why in recent years…
We tested SpaCy: much more than a library for creating real natural language processing projects
Few abilities are as characteristic of human beings as language. According to the Aristotelian school, humans are rational animals who pursue knowledge for the mere fact of knowing. Without going into deep philosophical considerations that far exceed the purpose of this space for dissemination, we c…
