Ecopia AI and Airbus Partnership Will Provide Next-Generation Digital Maps on a Global Scale

Today, Ecopia AI announced a partnership with Airbus to produce next-generation digital maps on a global scale—including land use/land cover, roads, and building footprint data. This digital mapping solution will provide commercial and government users with an accurate and up-to-date digital representation of their areas of interest, driving better decision making across industries.

“This collaboration will build on that track record—offering the next generation of digital maps at a global scale.”

Under the agreement, Ecopia will have access to Airbus’ global premium 50cm high-resolution imagery database, applying their industry-leading artificial intelligence-based systems to extract vector maps on a city to continental scale—with the accuracy of a GIS professional. These vector maps known as Ecopia Vector Maps will be available within the Airbus OneAtlas Platform and upon request, and can be ordered for any location across the globe, empowering users with precise insights in just a few clicks.
