the Undersecretary of Defense Research and Engineering), Cal Fire, and other partners ran the xView2 Prize Challenge to crowdsource computer vision algorithms for building damage assessment using satellite imagery. This talk will focus on the challenges/triumphs
in implementing the winning algorithms in operational contexts during the 2020-2021 fire seasons in California.</span></p>
