Planetary prediction engine: Automating global models via Earth AI
Planetary prediction engine: Automating global models via Earth AI
AI summary
Google Research introduced the experimental Planetary Prediction Engine (PPE) under Google Earth AI. From a natural language query, it autonomously discovers geospatial data, engineers features, trains and evaluates models and produces reports, compressing weeks of manual data engineering into minutes.

- Why it was chosen
- Quantified gains in public health, food security and outbreak prediction indicate the feasible scope of autonomous geospatial modelling.
A model scores each item twice, independently, against one written standard, out of 100. An item is admitted only when the two scores add up to twice the threshold. The threshold is set per source tier.
