Very provocative ideas! So excited to learn about Machine Learning applications from brilliant scholars. Thanks @mariadearteaga #MachineLearning #development #ML4D
We're having a live Q&A with our final invited speaker Catherine Nakalembe to learn about "Earth Observations and Machine Learning for Agricultural Development". Her wealth of knowledge and drive to positively impact communities is inspiring. Thanks for all you do, @CLNakalembe!

Great talk on detecting illegal mines using satellite data and machine learning: while overcoming legal and privacy challenges, @santisaap brings a project with potential for scaling to other regions @ML4Dworkshop is a great closure to @NeurIPSConf #ML4D2020 #NeurIPS2020
The fourth invited talk at #ML4D2020 by Santiago Saavedra was followed by a very engaging Q&A talking about data considerations, challenges, and potential extensions to other countries from the Colombian Mining Monitoring (CoMiMo) project. Thank you, @santisaap!
thanks again for the nice opportunity @ML4Dworkshop @kklmmr . I enjoyed a lot the discussion. #AI4EO for #SocialGood
The #ML4D2020 talk 2 and Q&A with @xiaoxiang_zhu is ongoing touching on several challenges and themes in projects taking advantage of earth observation data and their use across different countries.
