For the first time, a project led by the University of Oxford has trained a machine learning model in outer space, on board a satellite. This achievement could revolutionise the capabilities of remote-sensing satellites by enabling real-time monitoring and decision making for a range of applications. Currently, most satellites can only passively collect data, since ...

The researchers mapped the paths of two million ships in the Atlantic Ocean over a six-year period and used a global database for the winds on the trade routes the ...
