Promovemos el aprendizaje y la colaboración entre la comunidad tecnológica y científica

Behind many of today’s most impactful AI solutions lies a quiet yet essential force: mapping. From climate modeling to humanitarian logistics, from global supply chains to predictive health, geospatial data and mapping technologies are the connective tissue that make AI actionable in the real world. This keynote explores how maps—far more than visual tools—serve as critical data infrastructure, enabling AI systems to understand, navigate, and respond to our planet’s most urgent challenges. Drawing on real-world examples, we’ll highlight how this invisible layer underpins innovation across domains, and why its role in AI is only becoming more vital. Through the lens of geospatial information, the keynote also uncovers the broader implications for open data ecosystems, showing how accessible, shared data infrastructure can accelerate responsible AI development and deployment across sectors.
