Seeing the invisible: how artificial intelligence senses the ocean’s health 

Capgemini’s Global Data Science Challenge – LoVe the Ocean project shows how collaboration between marine biology and IT can enhance the understanding of our marine environment.

How do you make the invisible visible? The loss of species diversity in the world’s oceans –  dubbed “invisible dying” – is difficult to imagine. People intuitively understand the profound and perilous impact of such a decline on our planet, but there needs to be a deeper focus on prevention. Capgemini saw an opportunity to use artificial intelligence (AI) to contribute to the understanding and modeling of the earth’s climate and help scientists better monitor the marine environment.
