Tomnod was a crowdsourcing platform created by DigitalGlobe (now Maxar) that allowed volunteers to analyze satellite imagery for various purposes. It enabled the public to tag features in satellite images, creating maps and providing data for humanitarian efforts, research, and training AI/ML algorithms. Tomnod's activities supported disaster response by tagging damaged buildings and infrastructure, and aided in environmental research, such as surveying seal populations in Antarctica. The platform's image tagging capabilities were utilized to help Maxar serve humanitarian efforts and large-scale public mapping projects.
