Session description

G1.4 Data science and machine learning in geodesy

This session aims to showcase novel applications of data science and machine learning methods in geodesy.

In recent years, the amount of data from geodetic observation techniques has increased dramatically. Innovative approaches are required to efficiently handle and harness the vast amount of geodetic data available nowadays for scientific purposes. In particular, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) are facing challenges, but also opportunities, related to the expansive data collection (big data). Similarly, numerical weather models and other geophysical models important for geodesy come with ever growing resolutions and dimensions. Strategies and methodologies from the fields of data science and machine learning have shown great potential not only in this context, but also when applied to more limited data sets to solve complex non-linear problems in geodesy.

We invite contributions related to various aspects of applying methods from data science and machine learning (including both shallow and deep learning techniques) to geodetic problems and data sets. We welcome investigations related to (but not limited to): more efficient and automated processing of geodetic data, pattern and anomaly detection in geodetic time series, images or higher-dimensional data sets, improved predictions of geodetic parameters into the future, combination and extraction of information from multiple inhomogeneous data sets (multi-temporal, multi-sensor, multi-modal fusion), feature selection, super-sampling of geodetic data, and improvements of large-scale simulations. Especially encouraged are contributions that discuss the uncertainty quantification and interpretability of results from machine learning algorithms, as well as the integration of physical modeling into data-driven frameworks.
