## About space data

VC Fund · Shinjuku, Japan

Space Data is based on an algorithm that allows the AI to recognize geospatial data from the Earth and easily assign another Earth in VR. The company is developing an algorithm to automatically generate another "Earth" in virtual space using 3DCG technology by making the AI understand the geospatial information of the Earth by learningthe vast amount of ground observation data available from satellites. They want to create an AI that can reconstruct the "world" in virtual space by learning all kinds of data from this world, such as traffic volume, pedestrian traffic, day and night, four seasons, temperature, plant distribution, and nighttime light intensity. Its goal is to build a future in which everyone has the ability to create their own world (universe) and shape their own destiny without regard for race, gender, appearance, or environment.
