A Kelowna-based startup is seeking to inject artificial intelligence into the forestry sector as B.C. comes out of one of its worst fire seasons ever.“If you have a digital twin of a forest, you're able to model different outcomes,” said Genesis AI project director Brent Tolmie.
The company is deploying digital sensing technology, drones with LiDAR, photogrammetry, orthographic photography and melding it into 3D models of actual forests. In silviculture or reforestation, foresters currently plant sites based on best practices and known techniques. Access to affordable cloud-based AI supercomputers to process vast amounts of data affordably has been a “game changer” for the company.
