We’ll work with your internal specialists to identify foundational data, ensuring security and privacy are prioritised. We’ll then work with you to configure and connect this data to CESIUM.
Once the data is connected, it will be used to train and validate our Machine Learning (ML) model, ensuring that outputs and insights are as robust and trustworthy as possible.
We’ll extract additional data to power CESIUM’s wider suite of functionalities. We’ll also work with you to provide ongoing training, system support and longer-term exploitation analyses.
