About AlphaEarth Foundations
AlphaEarth Foundations is a new AI model from DeepMind that acts like a “virtual satellite” by integrating massive, heterogeneous Earth observation data, optical and radar imagery, 3D laser mapping, climate simulations, and more, into a unified, highly compact embedding for land and coastal areas, enabling consistent, on-demand planetary-scale mapping with far less storage overhead than prior systems. It fuses disparate streams to solve data overload and inconsistency, producing summaries that are 16 times smaller than comparable methods while delivering better accuracy (about 24% lower error in tested tasks) even where labeled data is sparse. Annual embedding collections are published as the satellite embedding dataset in Google Earth Engine and are already being applied by institutions to classify unmapped ecosystems, monitor agricultural and environmental change.
